Swimming - (Co-ed) Grades 1 - 8
- All participants MUST be able to swim the length of the pool (25 yards) unassisted and be able to LEGALLY swim 2 different strokes (Butterfly, Backstroke, Breaststroke, Freestyle).
- This is NOT an instructional program and St. Greg’s swims in a highly competitive division.
- There are between 80-100 students who participate on the swim team every year and tryouts will be necessary if the number of swimmers in a particular division is more than can compete in a weekly 2½ hour long meet.
- The kids compete in 3 different age divisions (8 and under; 9 & 10 year olds; 11 and over).
- Swim meets are held every Sunday for 8 weeks in the fall and the team practices 2-3 times each week.
- Practice sites rotate between several area pools.
- The swim team has always ranked at or near the top of the Newman Catholic Swim League (21 schools).
