During Splash Days, youth swim for free and swimming skills will be evaluated to see which group the swimmer is ready for on the Dickinson Dolphins Swim Team.
We have different groups, including Minnows, Flippers and Dolphins!
(We would like the Splash Days to be for new swimmers only so we can evaluate them into the group they need to be in.)
***Please bring a pair of goggles! If you do not have a good pair of goggles, we have some for sale in the lap pool for $10.
Who can swim with the Dickinson Dolphins?
Swim Team is open to ages 5-18, who enjoy swimming and want to learn new skills and endurance. The essence of the program is personal improvement; achieving a personal best, while being part of a team.
Swimmers wishing to be a part of the swim team should meet the following requirements:
- The swimmer must be comfortable being in the lap pool unassisted in the water.
- The swimmer must be confident in water over his or her head.
- The swimmer must be coachable.
When is the swim season?
Swimming has essentially turned into a year round activity! We have 2-3 different "Try Swim Team for Free" sessions throughout the year that go with our different seasons.
Our two main seasons are the Short Course Season ("Winter Season", which runs November-March) and the Long Course Season ("Summer Season", which runs May-July). The other months are considered "Pre-Season" months where we don't always have all of the groups swimming in those months.
There are registration periods for each of the different seasons that the registration payment covers that month. From there, recurring monthly payments within that season (Pre Season, Short Course & Long Course) will be set up to run automatically on the 1st of each month. If your child is not planning to swim a month, please let me know so I can turn off the auto run payment.
There are meets during the Short and Long Course Seasons that will be available to attend, but it is not required to attend meets to be on swim team!
Short Course "Winter Season" Practice Schedule & Fees:
