Swim season is quickly approaching, and the Princeton Otters have some exciting news!
This year we will be taking our program to the new Princeton YMCA.
Whether you are a beginning swimmer or have been swimming for years we welcome you to join our team. Our coaches will provide instructions in a safe environment that will help you improve. Whether you are looking to learn the four basic strokes or looking to "cut time" our coaches are prepared to help you.
Practices start: Tuesday, May 26th and end Monday July 9th. Practice will be every week Tuesday and Thursday from 9-10:30 at the Princeton YMCA, with the exception of the first two weeks, we will also practice on Wednesday May 27th and June 3rd. There will be no practice on meet days. Each of our swim meets will be held on Wednesday evenings at 5, in exception to the end of the season conference meet that will be held at the Deaconess Aquatic Center during the morning of July 13th. Every swimmer may swim at all of the meets and earn placement ribbons, but it's more about the fun of swimming, beating your person best and being a part of a team.
Your child must be able to swim 25 yards comfortably without assistance, that is one length of the pool. If there’s any question about their eligibility, we encourage them to come to the first practice and we will give them a swim test.
Swimmers Ages: 5 - 18
We will have an informational meeting at the YMCA in the Rode Family Community Room, May 19th at 5 p.m.. This will be informative and also give everyone an opportunity to try on suits to get the correct size ordered.
Registration will be posted in the next week or two, so please follow along our page and share so that we can get the word out. 
Looking forward to a fun summer of swimming!
