Brookside Swim Team

General Swim Team Info

• Swim meets are typically held in July on Saturday mornings and/or Wednesday evenings, depending upon the number of clubs participating.  Swimmers should arrive on time.
• All parents must be prepared to work at ALL our swim meets.  We need full parent support to provide our swimmers a summer meet season.  Please be prepared to step up and work if someone is unable to. This can and does happen!
• The amount of jobs/work obligations to be determined based on enrollment. All parents will be notified of their jobs ahead of time when possible. In addition to regular meets, all parents are expected to work at championships and conferences (if your swimmer/s qualify). 
• A work bond check will be collected by Amy Ryan, Team Parent, in the amount of $100, made out to "Brookside Swim Club" and put in the memo line, "Swim Team Work Bond".  All work bonds will be ripped up at the end of the season once all work requirements have been fulfilled by the parents of the swimmer.  Checks will only be cashed if parents have not completed their required jobs during the season.
