Kids' Swim Team

The swim team is for anyone — residents of Friars Cove or not — who is 8 to 18 years old. Practices are summer weekday mornings. The meets are almost always on summer Tuesday evenings.

Age groups are broken down as follows:

They swim as one team in meets with the girls swimming against the other teams girls in the same age group and the boys doing the same.

Practices are held each weekday beginning the Monday after school gets out in June until the last week of July. Practice times are 8:15 A.M.—9:15 A.M. for the older (faster swimmers) and 9:15 A.M.—10 :00 A.M. for the younger swimmers. The coaches will let the swimmers know at the beginning of each season which practice to attend.

The swim team began around 1973. The first head coach was Kevin Egan. Once the original group of kids in Friars Cove got too old for swim team the swim team ended. Many of the original swim team members now have swimmers on the present team!
