SWIM TEAM PRACTICE & MEET SCHEDULE
A NOTE FROM COACH ANN:
Due to the COVID-19 situation, our former fee structure has been suspended.
We have enacted a new system that allows our team to rent pools that are currently open for swim team use.
Swimmers must reserve their practice space. We will keep a waiting list, and will contact swimmers on the wait list if there is an opening.
All payments must be made in advance of "pool use" by a team member.
A swimmer has not reserved their practice lane unless they have paid the practice fee.
All our pool space is greatly restricted. Therefore, we are not allowing a "tryout" practice at this time.
No Refunds.

YEAR ROUND SWIM TEAM
The Stone Crabs Swim Team is a year round swim team. What does this mean? This means that we are very committed to training and developing our swimmers twelve months a year! We do not take significant break periods throughout the year because the sport of swimming requires training that is ongoing and only briefly interrupted. Our swimmers first learn how to swim their strokes correctly, and then we add the necessary yardage to enhance the endurance of our swimmers. We invite all our swimmers to train year round.
Of course, we recognize that our swimmers may want to try different activities throughout the year. This is one reason we allow our swimmers to train 1 day a week.
EQUIPMENT is important for our swimmers to have at all workouts. Swimmers need goggles, team cap, fins- please order all equipment from our team web site.
TEAM PARKA
Please contact Coach Ann if you would like to place a TEAM PARKA order.
The cost is $120.00 per parka- great for winter swimming.
