Practice Schedule
We encourage you to "bookmark" this page for quick reference.
This year, we've placed our practice and meet schedules on separate page for easy reference.
We will include the current two weeks schedule in a calendar format at the top of this page and then the general practice schedules and notes below the weekly schedule once the Season begins; for now, we just have the general practice schedule and notes posted below.
2011 Practice Schedule
Our Practice Schedule for this summer is shown below. Our first practice for 2011 will be on Monday, May 2nd. You can register online beginning March 5 or at any practice beginning on Monday, May 2.
During May, we practice Monday through Thursday in two main groups that are divided primarily by the athletes' ages - 10 & Younger and 11 and Older. Each of these main groups is further divided by age and ability so that we usually have at least three different practices going on at the same time.
Once we get to June, the team is divided into practice groups by the coaches based on ability as well as age. Each child should attempt to practice with their assigned group whenever possible. Swimmers may be moved from one group to another during the season if the coaches feel the swimmer’s ability, attitude and circumstances warrant such a change.
May Practice Schedule:
6 & Under Swimmers:- Monday through Thursday ONLY from 5:15 to 6:00 p.m.
- Monday through Thursday, 5:15 to 6:15 p.m.
- Monday through Thursday, 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.
Due to conflicts with other events at JCDS, we may be unable to practice on some nights in May as well as Memorial Day, Monday May 30th.
Our first dual meet is on Tuesday, May 31st and there is no practice on the days we have meets. On Saturday, May 28th, we will begin our dual meets (see the 2010 Dual Meet Schedule below for the remaining dual meets). We do not practice on days we have dual meets.
On Saturday, May 28th, we will begin our Saturday practices for the "Late Night" groups ONLY.
Practice Schedule beginning on Wednesday, June 1st:
6 & Under Swimmers:- Continue Monday through Thursday ONLY, 5:15 to 6:00 p.m. as above.
