Every year, over 300 young swimmers citywide participate in the BCYF Swim league. This is a developmental league. It introduces participants to competitive swimming. GROW A SWIMMER Be part of the team… BCYF Mason Pool is looking for swimmers ages 6-17 years old who are committed team members. We would like all of our swimmers to attend all swim team practices, meets and require swimmers to attend championships in early March. While occasional conflicts are inevitable, we would like them kept to a minimum. Come in and tryout our swim team for 2 weeks. Dates: 8/23, 8/26, 8/30, 9/2 Time: 6:00 to 7:15 pm Tryouts are run like a "mini" swim team practice. First date 8/23 swimmers will be given a chance to warm up in lanes and then will be timed swimming 25 yards (1 lap) (ages 6 - 10) or 50 yards (2 laps) (ages 11 - 17) in all 4 competitive strokes (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly). During the actual timed portion of the tryout they will be swimming against other swimmers in the same age bracket.
