Our swim team is run by Hugh Vogt and his team of coaches. Our coaches have grown up at Concord Swim Club and hold this team and this pool in their hearts. You must be a member of CSC in order to join our team. We take children ages 4 and up. Children who cannot swim or need to begin stroke instruction will start as Shrimpers. Once they are able to make it across the pool unassisted they will move up to their age group in the swim team practices.
Practices start May 12. The SPC swim season lasts until July 11 and 12 with a conference championship in Charlotte. Swim meets are once a week starting June 5th. May 31 is our Red and Black meet. Everyone will swim all the events they are able to establish seed times and relays. In order to compete in the conference meet each swimmer must compete in three meets, Red and Black counts. There are a total of 7 meets.
Our team suit is the TYR Hexa Diamondfit in black with red trim. Reddiset will be at the pool on April 26 from 10:30an-12:30pm for a suit fitting. You do not have to buy this suit, however, you need a red or black suit. Boys must wear a jammer or a brief. Girls must wear a one piece competition suit. Tech suits are not permitted. Reddiset will deliver to your house! They will also have a team store with our logo! Order online and they ship to you!
Registration includes a CSC Swim Team shirt for each swimmer, instruction M-F from May 12-July 11 & 12 as well as coaching at meets. There is no cost for meets. There is an admission fee at conference to help pay for the facility.
Cost is $85/swimmer. Swimmers 15 and up are $45. There is a $10 sibling discount, this discount does not apply to swimmers over 15 and up.
All swim meet decisions are made by our coaches, no exceptions. Changes cannot be made at the meet. Please keep up with our emails and other communications. If you have a question, we have probably answered it in an email! We use Sign Up Genius for volunteers as well as meet participation. If your child will NOT swim in a meet, please let us know through Sign Up Genius. Our coaches are busy at practice and may not remember. It is better to have all participation documented in one place.
Each swimmer is allowed to swim in 5 events at a meet, no more. They can swim 3 individual events and 2 relays. The computer takes the fastest seed times and creates the relays. Your child may be in the B relay at one meet and not in a relay at the next meet. It all depends on who is swimming and what their times are. Your child may swim up for a relay but they cannot swim down.
The CSC Swim Team works hard to provide fun and quality instruction. We do not make money on our swim team. Please make sure all dues are paid before your child shows up to practice. If you would rather pay in person, please come to the Suit Fitting on April 26 from 10:30am-12:30pm. We are able to take cash and checks.
PLEASE NOTE: THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS AND NO TRANSFER OF FEES FROM ONE YEAR TO THE NEXT.
