Green Wave Family-

We are approaching the opening of registration for the 2026 season the first week of March. We have been doing a lot of prep behind the scenes for this season and can't wait for warmer weather! 

We spent a lot of time this fall discussing our practice schedule and how to improve it to serve our families and swimmers best. We had some dedicated sessions to discuss problem areas and potential solutions and are implementing a new practice schedule this summer. We welcome any feedback on the schedule now or throughout the summer as we roll it out. 

Mornings

8:30-9:45 – 11 and older (swim until 10:00 on Wed/Fri)

9:45-10:15- Learn to Swim & 6 and under (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday Only)

10:15-11:15- 9-12 year olds

11:15-12:00- 8 and under

Late Practice Schedule on Days after Dual Meets(dates to be announced):

10:00-11:00- 11 and older

11:00-12:00- 10 and under (No learn to swim)

Evenings:

Monday/Wednesday

5:00-5:30 8 and under (no learn to swim)

Tuesday/Thursday

You may notice there is some overlap of age ranges to allow you to choose the practice that best suits your swimmers. Older age groups will focus more on endurance while younger age groups will focus more on technique. Make sure to ask if you have a question about what practice you should attend. 

Please also keep in mind that our Learn to Swim options are specifically designed for our swimmers who are not yet comfortable swimming a length of the pool on their own. Coaches/Junior Coaches will be in the water during Learn to Swim practices. 

We hope you're excited to spend another summer with us at GMST!
