We have hosted our club tryouts for the short
course season in August. Check back for tryouts in March for
the long course season.
Tryouts: Bearcat Swim Club holds two tryouts
per year: Fall and Spring. Before joining our team, we
ask that you come to have your swimmers evaluated for proper group
placement and to learn more about us. The only requirement
for your swimmers to attend tryouts is to be able to swim 25 yards
of front crawl and backstroke. Please have your swimmers
bring a suit, goggles and towel.
Bearcat Swim Club accepts swimmers onto the
team throughout the year if there is appropriate space. If
you would like your swimmer to be evaluated and you missed the
scheduled tryout, please email Head Age Group Coach, Kate Phifer
wih the following information:
- --Swimmer’s name
- --Swimmer’s age
- --Parent’s name
- --Previous swimming experience

Please take a moment to look through our
website. There is a lot of helpful information. The
