Details:
– Swim Suit Fitting (5/4 from 3-4:30pm at Green Mountain Rec Center)
Please join us at the Rec Center to try on sample suits so you can find your correct size for the upcoming summer season. All orders will be placed online, so if you know your swimmer’s suit size, then you do not need to attend. (As a reminder, team suits are not required, so the pressure is off). Questions, just email us at gmstgators@gmail.com
– Pool Clean Up (5/4 and 5/11 from 9am-2pm at Green Mountain Swim Club)
Our swim club is managed by an all-volunteer team and opening the pool each season is a very big lift. If you are on the swim team, but not a member, please remember that we wouldn’t have this amazing swim team without this awesome pool! We would love your help to show a little Gator Pride. Same message to our swim team/pool members, but you’ll get an extra incentive of earned guest passes by showing up for at least 2 hours.
Saturday, May 5th – sign up here
Saturday, May 11th – sign up here
– After School Practices + 8 and Under Try-outs:
Monday – Thursday (5/20 – 5/23) – weather permitting
4-5pm: 12 and under
5-6pm: 13 and older
**Note: The 8 and Under tryouts are for new swimmers only. If you were on the team last year, you do not need to try out. If you hope to be our newest Gator, we will be evaluating swimmers based on safety, not on their ability to do each stroke. We want to make sure that no one is a drowning risk and has the stamina to do at least a 30-45 minute practice.

Hello swimmers! Gator Swim Team registration is open and we couldn’t be more excited. Please click here to register. All swimmers must be registered in advance of our first practice on 5/20 and paid in full by 5/28 .

Summer season starts the week of 5/20
First Intrasquad meet is scheduled for Wednesday 5/29
First dual meet is scheduled for Saturday 6/1

Important Notes: Please check the website often for all updates relating to swim team (practices, meets, weather cancellations, etc). For returning parents that are trying to get your schedule together… our season is one-week shorter this year. League and State have moved up a week and we do not have a bye weekend planned, so the fast and furious nature of summer swim just got a little faster! Please go to the Practice/Meets page on our website for details of the schedule.

We have the pool booked for this Spring. Join us at the Green Mountain Rec Center on Saturdays.

(Ages 5 – 18)

starts Saturday 9/16 at 3pm

100% Swimming Practices– UPDATE (9/8/23)*
*These swim sessions are full. You may contact the coaches listed below to be on the waitlist.

(ages 12+ with strong swim skills)
100 Percent swimming was created as an alternative to a full commitment and higher costs that comes with some club swimming.   We will practice 3 days a week at the Green Mountain Rec Center on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Practice will start on Monday Sept  11 and go through the last week of October.  If your swimmer is of high school age and swimming on a team then practice for you would end after that first week in November.  The purpose of this is to keep swimmers in shape and focus on technique over typical non-swimming months.  The design is a no nonsense practice with no commitment to weekends.  There are no expectations of practices you need to make, but hopefully you make the commitment to make a majority of the practices.  There will not ever be more than 5 swimmers per lane which means that this will be capped at the first 20 swimmers on a first come first serve basis so if you are interested please contact me soon.  

• Practice starting on Monday Sept 11th – Thursday Nov 2nd.  Times are TBD but expect 7-8ish
•  Strong swimmers age 12  and up with the expectation that a swimmer is comfortable with swimming roughly 1600 meters in one hour. 
• Swimmers must have swim experience.  We will practice technique, but this is not a learn to swim setting
• Knowing all strokes is a benefit, but not required
• The cost includes facility rental, coaches pay and insurance.  250 dollars is a non refundable fee regardless of how many practices you can make per week

Coaches – Tim Campbell, Ryan Adams and Jim Murphy
Please feel free to contact me or coach Adams with any questions tbcampbe@jeffcoschools.us or rjadams@jeffcoschools.us
