Team Practices - Summer 2024

Location: Schaal Aquatics Center, UC Davis, Davis Ca

 

What are team practices?

 

These are bonus swimming practices we offer all Davis Summer AQM - BIG MONSTERS, WHITE, RED, BLACK and High School (not for Little Monsters).

 

At team practices we bring our swim team together at one swimming and training location in Davis and teach swim meet racing starts. Part of the process of learning racing starts is the water safety of entry into the pool. This is a lot of fun for the kids as they get to bond with their peer group swimmers.

 

What should you bring to swim team practice?

Please bring your regular swimming equipment to the swim TEAM practice. Reminder - no rash guards or trunks.

 

Swimmers must learn to dive with goggles.  The goggles your child plans to wear when racing should be the goggles they wear when they practice. This allows the swimmer to be comfortable in the goggle and that the goggles are properly adjusted.

If your child wears a swim cap during practice, then they should wear one at the swim meets. If they don't wear a swim cap at practice, we DO NOT recommend wearing one at meets. Goggles are adjusted for fit which is dependent upon wearing a cap or not. So if the swimmer wants to wear a swim cap at meets, they must practice with them.

 

Swim caps are a team rule. However, swimmers with short hair (no buns,ponytails) do not have to wear caps when training or at swim meets.

 

Mark your calendar for these TEAM practice dates.
