Team Requirements

Ages 6-18
If you can swim a lap in the pool you're ready to start swim team!
​We’re a competitive team and we acknowledge and encourage both individual and team successes, but attending competitive meets is not required to be part of our team. 
​Coming to practices with a commitment to improve a little bit every day is required--and any swimmer who follows that rule is already a champion.

The Bay Area Swim Team is a competitive team located farther north than any other swim team in Wisconsin. We have students from several school districts as well as home-schooled students on our team.  We have a proud tradition of producing excellent swimmers!

Community

There are a lot of individual events in competitive swimming, but every member of the team is part of our community of swimmers. Team members are expected to support one another at all times, both in and out of the pool. Older, experienced swimmers are encouraged to mentor, teach, and watch over younger athletes at both practices and competitions.

Parents

Parents and caregivers are important members of the Bay Area Swim Team. Transporting swimmers to practices and meets is a big job; being a sounding board for those frustrating practices is an act of patience; and making sure the homework is done sometimes means perseverance and even more patience. Thank you for all that you do!

Please make sure that we have your email address--it is our main form of communicating directly with you. 
​We will require that you fill out a waiver and contact info sheet on the first night of practice. You can print and fill out the waiver and contact info sheet above.
