CW Cubs (formerly Swim Development)
Program
Info
The
CW Cubs program is designed to give young swimmers a
positive and technically sound beginning to a lifetime of swimming.
This program is primarily for 8 & Under swimmers, but
9 & 10 year old athletes who do not yet meet the requirements
of the 10U program are welcome to participate.
In small groups, swimmers will progressively learn the skills
necessary to join the 10 & Under Competitive or Developmental
Programs. Children must be able to swim independently for
distance of 15-20 feet in any manner before enrolling, and
should be at least 4 years of age. |
CW Cubs Spring sessions have been postponed due to scheduling and staffing issues. We hope to begin Spring Session 1 in mid-May.
|
Any swimmer wishing to participate in optional novice level competitions must purchase an individual USA Swimming membership for insurance purposes.
Class sizes are limited and will be filled on a first come, first served policy. Classes with 2 registered swimmers or less may be cancelled. In this event, swimmers affected will be re-scheduled.
