Adult Lap Swim

Swim Team Information

PLEASE UTILIZE THE REMIND APP THIS SEASON. ENTER 81010 AND TEXT THE MESSAGE @cranbro

SWIM TEAM & JUNIOR DOLPHIN REGISTRATION is closed for the season.

SWIM TEAM is for those swimmers who can swim 2 full lengths in 2 competitive strokes.  It does not have to be pretty or perfect - they just have to be able to get across the pool.  If they aren't ready, consider our Junior Dolphins team.  If you are not certain whether your swimmer belongs on the team or Junior Dolphins, please bring your child between 5:00-5:30pm after May 21st, or have your child attend a Junior Dolphin practice, (5:00 - 5:30), after May 29th and coaches will assess and advise.  

(Registration for team and Junior Dolphins is the same.)

 Please contact the swim chairs with any questions about swim team at: swim@cranbrookswimclub.com .
