Swim Team
The Aurora Country Club swim team is open to anyone ages 3 - 18 who
loves to swim. There are no qualifying times or minimum standards that
a child must meet in order to participate. If the child is 6 years old
or younger, he must be able to put his face in the water and float -
that's it, our outstanding coaching staff will take it from there.
The
Aurora Country Club Swim Team season begins in June and concludes the
last weekend of July. Daily practices will focus on teaching and improving
the four competitive strokes. In order to compete in a meet, a 6 year
old or younger child must be able to swim across the diving well without
assistance. If a child is age 7 - 10, to compete in a meet he must be
able to swim the length of the pool. If he is over 11, he must be able
to complete 2 lengths of the pool. Meets are not required to
participate on the swim team, but they are strongly encouraged. Swim
meets can be really fun!
Anyone who is even a little interested in encouraged
to try it out for the first week and see what they think. Coaches will
be available at the pool during Memorial Day weekend if you have any
specific questions.

ACC PRACTICE SCHEDULE

Swimming Coach -- Emily Timmons
SWIM -- The 2010 Swimming Practice Schedule will remain similar to past years. Swimmers are grouped by age, to promote learning of the same technique and endurance. Unless you get approval from a coach to come to a different time, it is important that the swimmers practice with their teammates. This allows the simmers to build trust and friendships with their peers. |

DIVE -- Diving will run slightly different this year. Coach Liz will be handling diving as well as swimming. In the past, diving has been a walk-in practice. To help divers get plenty of board time and coaching, we felt it would be helpful to establish some flexible practice times. We understand there will be days when golf and tennis might interfere. We are happy to work around these conflicts as necessary. |
