NEW SWIMMER DAY

Tuesday, May 1st at 5:30pm

     Totman Pool, UMass

Bring your suit, goggles, a cap and a towel.

1. New swimmers will swim and show the coaches their strokes.  New swimmers must be able to complete 25 yards (1 lap) of swimming on their stomach, and 25 yards (1 lap) on their back, without stopping.
2. Coaches then will place new swimmers in groups according to their swim level. (Age group, Junior or Senior)
3. Please bring filled out registration and emergency forms with payment on May 1^st.  At the end of the evaluation the coach will provide what group your child will be in and how much you will need to write your check for. (Age group $300.00, Juniors $325.00, Senior $460.00) Descriptions of each swim level are posted on our website. Swimmers that are not quite ready for the team will be asked to take a few more swimming lessons before joining. Swimmers need to be ready for competitive swimming.
4. We have a two week “see if you like it” policy for new swimmers.  After two weeks we will deposit checks. In that 2 week period if your child is not comfortable and doesn’t want to continue we will give you your check back.  We do not refund after May 14th or prorate fees.  Payment is required at the new swimmer day on May 1st.  Two week period ends on May 14th.

While the “New Swimmers” are swimming, there will be a MANDATORY parent meeting in the stands. We will answer any questions and will provide you with all the information to becoming a TRITON.

Please email us to let us know you are coming by April 28^th @ k3connor@charter.net

We can’t wait to meet you.                              ~Kate Connor
