*At the discretion of the coaching staff, selected swimmers may be asked to swim with a different age group, depending on their experience and skill level.
Our first practice is Tuesday, May 29. Practice will be held weekdays through July 17. Practice will be held as long as the pool is open. In the event of bad weather (i.e. a thunderstorm), coaches will send an e-mail announcing the cancellation of practice as soon as possible. Please plan to arrive at least 5 minutes before your child’s scheduled practice time. If you are not a member of the Downs community you must sign in before entering the pool area. Swimmers should be ready to jump in the pool when practice starts.
Required equipment for practices: Please come prepared for practice with a swimsuit, cap (if you have long hair), and goggles. Caps will be provided by the team. All other equipment is the responsibility of the swimmer.
