2008 Meets

Registration for summer swim team is closed--the team has reached its maximum enrollment.

Last update: 5/6/08


Participation is open to any swimmer who is 5 to 17 years of age as of May 1, 2008 of the current year and can swim one lap (25 yards) each of freestyle and backstroke without assistance. Swimmers do not need to be Lakeway residents or members of the Lakeway Swim Center to participate on the summer team.

The $190 swimmer registration fee includes coaching, pool usage during swim team, swimmer t-shirt, swimmer banquet fee, league fees, meet fees, awards and trophy (for eligible swimmers), and team administrative costs.

In addition to the registration fee, one parent from each family must be available to work three swim meets during the season from start to finish. There are no exceptions to this requirement.

To get the most from our program, swimmers should be able to attend at least three practices per week. All swimmers must be able to participate in three sanctioned swim meets during the season, not including the intrasquad meet.

Note: There is no "summer stroke clinic" this year prior to the beginning of practice. Swimmers who want to swim in April can join the year round team.
