New Prague MIDDLE SCHOOL Girls Swim & Dive Program Options

Middle School Girls have TWO options for joining a Swim Team.  The first option is by joining the Middle School Team offered through Community Education.  The Middle School Team offered through Community Education is primarily for beginner swimmers where the focus will be on learning the fundamentals of the sport.  The Middle School Team offered through Community Education is open to all 6th, 7th and 8th grade girls. 

The second option for 7th and 8th graders is by achieving one of the time standards listed above. If they do, they will be invited to practice and compete with the JV/Varsity squad. If your child has met one of these time standards and has received approval from one of the High School coaches to join the JV/Varsity Squad, they will need to register with both the Activities Department and with the team directly. 

 

7th-8th grade Divers will practice with the HS team since there is no MS Dive Team.

If you are interested in joining the team as a MS diver, please contact Coach Tracy to make sure that this is an appropriate fit for you.
