The Waeg Waves Swim Team is run by a parent volunteer executive committee in conjunction with the Head Coach. Parents of team members are expected to provide some volunteer support throughout the summer season.  The Waeg Waves Swim Team provides an opportunity for its members to develop as athletes and to achieve their potential as swimmers within the ten week course of the program. Because swimmers join our team at a range of ability levels and ages, the progress of each individual varies greatly. During the introductory stages, coaches strive to develop technical skills while at the same time fostering a love for the sport and establishing a positive team atmosphere. Through the Waeg Waves Swim Team’s emphasis on leadership, sportsmanship, and self -discipline, all swimmers will gain the chance to be the best they can be in the pool and to become better people in the process.

Before registering, please consider the following:

1. This is a competitive swim club that competes in swim meets almost every weekend during the summer in various locations- locally and out of town. We ask that swimmers attend 50% of the practices and make· at least 3 meets. Practices are held Monday-Friday (rain or shine).   Each age group has one specified morning swim and four evening swims.
2. Swimmers should have passed Swim Kids 6 or equivalent. For those who have not taken formal lessons the coaches will administer a pool test during the first week of practices.
3. We cannot accommodate winter competitive swimmers.
4. If you were a member last year and are not planning to return, please advise us so others can be accommodated

Volunteers

Volunteers are a very important part of our team.  Parents are expected to provide some volunteer support throughout the summer.  The Waeg Waves will be hosting the a swim meet in early July and many hands will be needed.  Please sign up to help out. There will also be a need for volunteers to help with the Coaches Cooler, and packing, delivering and setting up of tarps and team tent for each swim meet throughout the summer.  There will be more about these activities at the start of the season.
