Practice News

We will begin seven+ weeks of optional, preseason swim practice on Monday, September 21. The practices will concentrate on technique in all strokes and the intensity level will increase gradually during the seven weeks. Team swim suits are not necessary. This is an excellent introduction to swim team for novice swimmers. Swimmers who begin their swim training on the first official day of practice, Thursday, November 12, will be facing a 4,000 yard practice in 120 minutes. Different rest intervals will be established for different abilities.

Week of September 21:

Monday through Friday - South Boulder Rec Center: 3:30-5:00PM plus 40 minutes of optional dryland training afterwards.

Preseason Practice Fee: Unfortunately, due to the rising cost of pool rental and BVSD budget constraints, it will be necessary to charge for the preseason swim practice. Participants can pay $200 for the entire seven week program (45 practices) or $10 per practice on a drop-in basis. Checks should be made payable to Fairview High School with swimming preseason in the memo and sent to: Mandy Best, 5320 Pennsylvania Avenues, Boulder, 80303. Drop-in athletes are encouraged to pay with one check at the end of the seven week period. Scholarships are available for financial need.
