SWIM TEAM - 2023

Wahoo's youth swim team will be back in the pool this summer!  Registrations are currently being accepted.  Deadline is May 29th.

The goal of the Wahoo Otters Swim Team is to build better swimmers by developing technique in all four strokes.  The program emphasizes effort and personal growth throughout the summer.  The program is for youth ages 5-18.  Practices are held daily (Monday-Thursday) from 8:30am-9:30am at the Aquatic Center.  The program will run from June 5th through July 22nd.  Please review the prerequisites for participation listed below:

  • Ages 8 & Under:  Must be able to swim the length of the pool (25m) independently and must pass an *evaluation (see below).
  • Ages 9 & Above:  Must have passed Level 4 (Red Cross lessons) or equivalent, be knowledgeable of all swim strokes, and have the endurance to swim laps during practice.

*Swim Test for New Swimmers:  There will be evaluations of new swimmers on Tuesday, May 23rd and Thursday, May 25th from 6:30pm-8pm at the Civic Center pool.  A coach will be present to evaluate and test swimmers to insure they are ready for swim team and will be safe on their own during practice while swimming laps.  Swim suit 'try-on' will also be held at the same time.  See below for more information.

*Swim Suit 'Try-On':  New this year, as part of the registration fee, swim suits will be provided.  There will be two dates for swim team members to try-on swim suits so they are properly fitted and can be ordered.  These dates are in conjunction with the swim test (mentioned above) and will be Tuesday, May 23rd and Thursday, May 25th from 6:30pm-8pm at the Civic Center pool.
