Big Spring Aquatic Club-- Summer Swimming
Swim Team
The Big Spring Aquatic Club (BSAC) will begin its summer swim season on Monday, May 14. The team is made up of boys and girls from pre-school through high school. We compete against other swim teams in the area. We welcome all new and returning members!
Prerequisite to join the team: Your child must be able to swim the length of the pool Freestyle and Backstroke unassisted or have passed level III Red Cross swim instruction.
Practice Times: Monday through Friday 5:15-7:00 p.m. beginning Monday, May 14 through Friday, June 1. Then Monday through Thursday 5:15 - 7:00 p.m through the end of July. Additional practices available Monday, Wednesday, Friday 6:00 -7:30 a.m. for ages 11 and up beginning Monday, June 11 through the end of July. All swimmers are expected to attend at least 3 practices per week.
Meets: Swim meets begin in mid-June and run through July on Saturday mornings. Dates will be included with the information packet handed out at our mandatory parents meeting on Friday, May 18.
Mini Swim Team
If your child loves the water but is not quite able to swim the length of the pool unassisted, then our mini team may be for them. They will be learning the four competitive swim strokes and how to dive off the block. Mini swimmers will even participate at home meets.
