Summit Surge Swim Team

Swimmers between 9 and 18 are welcome to join our Competitive swimming program. To be eligible to participate, prospective swimmers aged 11 and under must be able to swim 50 yards in all four competitive strokes, while those aged 12 and above must be able to swim 100 yards of each competitive stroke. Additionally, all potential swimmers must be two seconds away from achieving a "B min" short course (yards) time standard in at least two events for their age group as outlined by the USA Swimming National Motivational Time Standard at the discretion of the head coach. You can access time standards here (https://www.usaswimming.org/docs/default-source/timesdocuments/time-standards/2024/2021-2024-national-age-group-motivational-times.pdf).

If you're not yet ready for the competitive program, don't worry! We have a supportive developmental program tailored to your skill level. For short-course swimmers, the requirement is to swim 50 yards of freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. This group focuses on technique, body position, endurance, and racing skills, meeting twice a week for one hour each practice. While swim meet participation is not mandatory, it's highly encouraged to help the athlete measure progress and foster a love for swimming.
