Junior Swim Team
Because of its great success last year, we will again offer the Junior Swim Team program. Junior Swim Team is designed for a child who is 8 or under and unable to swim one lap of freestyle unassisted and without stopping. Junior Swim Team is not for beginning swimmers, but for swimmers who are comfortable in the water, ready to learn some swim team skills, and likely to be ready for swim team within the next year. Dewing Park Junior swimmers can “graduate” to 6- unders or 7/8s when deemed ready by the coaches.
Polliwogs
The Polliwog program is designed for a child who is 3-6 years old and not yet able to swim. Polliwogs is an excellent preparation program for junior swim team. Children will play games and practice developmental water skills. Polliwogs can “graduate” to Junior Swim Team when deemed ready by the coaches.
Both programs are designed to be FUN and INSTRUCTIVE! If your children are only swimming on Junior Swim Team or Polliwogs, you will not have job requirements. Your jobs will be added on a pro-rata basis if your child moves up to swim team.
The season for both programs culminates in the wildly exciting “Mini Meet” where Junior swimmers, Polliwogs and 8 & unders all compete in a sweet and silly meet. The date for Mini Meet is July 26th. In addition, Junior swimmers may have the opportunity to swim in one “real” dual meet at the end of the season. These events are, of course, optional.
Please see the practice schedule for practice times.
