Practice is held at the Longwood Bend pool, located at the corner of Longwood Bend and Louetta, according to the practice schedules, below. Swimmers are encouraged to attend at least three practices per week; those age 7 and up are asked to bring fins.

Remember that practice is not swim lessons. To sign up for individual lessons, please talk to coaches during practices or visit our Lessons page.

When bringing your swimmer to practice, please do not park on Longwood Bend as it creates a hazardous situation. If the pool parking lot is full, please park along the white fence on Kavanaugh. We appreciate your cooperation!

Rain Policy

Some practices will continue despite rain, but we will NOT conduct practices if there is thunder or lightning. We will make every attempt to post cancellations on the website Bulletin Board and possibly send out team e-mails. If you do not see it posted, use your judgment as a parent when deciding whether to send your swimmer to practice in the rain.
