Practice Schedule
Practices are Monday-Saturday each week of season. Swimmers should attend the practice time they registered for in advance of season. Can’t remember which class you signed up for? No problem. Check out the class rosters below.
Remember when there is a club meet, there is NO PRACTICE that evening for anyone. This allows coaches to be at the swim meet helping the team. You can view December’s detailed schedule if you’re wondering about practice.
