ASSIGNED SESSIONS / ATTENDANCE
Team practices are held at the College Park Pool, 14731 Holly Oak Avenue, Irvine, CA 92606. Practices are broken down into separate sessions by age group and skill level. Children may occasionally swim up or down one level to facilitate a conflict in a family’s schedule with coach's approval. However, children who would like to permanently change practice sessions must present a formal written request to the Coach prior to making the change. It is recommended that children attend a minimum of four practices per week.
SWIMMER READINESS
In order to participate on the swim team, children must be comfortable in the water and be able to demonstrate 25 yards of horizontal, unsupported movement.
Children who are afraid of the water or deemed unsafe by the coaching staff and/or swim team board during the first few weeks of practice may be asked to wait a year before joining the team.
APPROPRIATE ATTIRE - DO NOT WEAR COMPETITION SUIT FOR PRACTICE
PRACTICE: Children may wear their own swimwear to practice. For girls, one-piece bathing suits and a mandatory swim cap. For Boys, jammers or briefs, no swim trunks. We have team caps available for purchase. Please email our apparel coordinator at [email protected] with questions.
MEETS: Swimmers are expected to wear an official team swimsuit (one-piece for girls; jammer or brief for boys). All swimmers are required to wear an official team cap. Team suits will be available for purchase through our website. Suits are non-refundable.
NECESSARY EQUIPMENT
Goggles, swim fins, and a water bottle are necessary for practice sessions. Please label all items with your child's name in permanent marker!
PARENT RESPONSIBILITY
During their assigned practice session, children are supervised by the Splash coaching staff and are the responsibility of the College Park Splash Swim Team. The College Park Splash Swim Team is NOT responsible for any swimmer in the pool prior to or after his/her assigned practice session.
