Join the Team

We are excited that you are checking out the Penguins Swim Team and welcome newcomers to come and join us!

Join the Team
In order to join the team participants must first tryout to see where they are at skill wise.  If they are accepted on the team we will offer them a free 1-week trial, so that families can decide whether the team is a good fit for their child.  (Allstar Fitness will also offer a free 1-week trial during this time, so you can try us out without any costs)

Tryouts:
When considering new participants for our team, we ask for them to be able to:

  • Demonstrate basic familiarity with the 4 competitive swimming strokes; freestyle, backstroke, butterfly and breaststroke. Strokes don’t need to be mastered, but swimmers should be familiar with their basic techniques.
  • Swim 25 meters of each stroke.
  • Desire to be part of a team!
