With Covid-19 we are in a wait and see mode right now. NVSL has not made a league wide decision yet nor have most pools regarding operations. On April 19th you will be able to sign-up for volunteer jobs, but we don't want to take money for registration until we are sure what our season will look like. We will update you as soon as new information is known. Questions or new family interest, please email robinosterhout@variptide.com

VR Riptide is a closed pool, open only to VR Residents. New Families interested in the team should email robinosterhout@variptide.com for information. You can also visit the FAQ tab of this site for useful information about our swim team. New swimmers usually start around the age of 6 and swim until 18. We are not a "learn to swim" program. New swimmers must be able to swim a 25M (one length of pool) freestyle, unassisted to be eligible for the team. This ensures they are water safe and ready to learn the other strokes which we will introduce over the course of the summer.
Parent Volunteering is a part of Swim Team. All families are required to volunteer for 5 jobs per season 1 must be at Time Trials and only 1 could be at a social event. All others must be at swim meets
