We will offer a time trial Friday, November 14thto determine appropriate practice groups for swimmers

Red/White/Blue Group placement is determined by several factors:

  • Friday’s time trial- 100 Free, 50 Stroke (CoachesChoice), 50 Free, 50 Stroke (Swimmers Choice ), 100 IM (Optional)
  • Prior swimming and diving experience
  • Cut times- In order to be placed in our “Red” group a secondary state cut time must be achieved.
