NEW FOR 2023: The Hills West Rec Club Swim Team is now open to both members and non-members. Details about non-member pricing will be posted once finalized. Registrations will open mid-April. Click here if you would like to sign up to receive an email once registration opens.
Who Can Join: Any child who has completed and passed level 5 swim lessons (or the equivalent) can join swim team. See below for details. Our Bylaws state:
“As per the requirements of swim team, all swimmers must be able to swim 50m (two laps) if they are older than 8 or 25m (one lap) if they are 8 or younger. These laps must be completed without stopping. Additionally, they must be able to swim all four strokes (butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle). While we are here to help critique and improve these strokes, the basic skill must be present. These requirements have been in place to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all of those involved in swim team. If your child does not meet these requirements at this time (as will be determined at the first practice) they may begin the season in level 5 swim lessons and transfer to swim team mid-season or continue in level 5 swim lessons until they are ready.”
WHEN: Practices are for 8 weeks, Monday through Thursday, mid-June through mid-August. Summer 2023 dates will be posted once finalized. There are two practice times for swim team, 8 am (advanced) and 8:45 am (beginners). All swim team members should come to the 8am practice on the first day and the coaches will place you into your session for the rest of the season.
2022 COST: $100 for the first child and $80 for each additional family member for the entire season. Summer swimmers pay $120 for the first child and $100 for each additional family member. *Included is a team t-shirt and the famous doughnuts on Thursdays. Summer 2023 prices will be posted once finalized.
