Swim Team – 2012

Most meets are held on Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings. The Wednesday meets are more casual – the swimmers often choose their events with some coach input. The Saturday meets are the more competitive meets with assigned swimmers.

On Friday evenings, the team has Pep Rallies for all team members with loud cheers followed by pizza and drinks. Special events are planned through the June-July swim season.

Head Coach Dave Crocker works with his assistant coaches to assess the swimming levels of the children to see if they are eligible for either the regular team (Seahawks) or the developmental team, the Kiddie Hawks.

The Cedarbrook Kiddie Hawks is a “pre-team” (usually 5-8 year olds). Attention will be given to improving stroke technique and endurance. As any swimmer progresses, he or she might be encouraged to move up to the regular team, allowing them to swim in some meets.

Our swim team is a central activity for the pool community and is a great way to have fun and make new friends while developing strong swimming skills.
