Stingrays Swim Team Registration is Open!
Visit https://springbranchstingrays.swimtopia.com or http://sorapool.org/ to learn more and register for the 2020 season!
You may start the process from either site, just follow the links.
Families of swimmers through 14 yrs. old must have a family stockholding membership to SORA in order for their kids to be on the team. Swimmers 15 yrs. and up may purchase a swim team teen membership at a discount for themselves only.
Our first event will be Sunday Apr. 26 with a dry land workout for all swimmers, parent open house and first skills assessment for "new to the team" swimmers 8 yrs. and under. We hope to see everyone there!
"New to the team " swimmer policy and timeline - please read
We welcome swimmers of all skill levels to be a part of the program. We encourage parents of beginners to help their kids have fun and succeed by having them participate in basic swim lessons (can be found various places in Houston) before our practices begin.
Our policy will be for a swimmer to be able to propel themselves unassisted for 1/2 the length of the pool in order to continue practicing beyond May 11 (one week into our practice schedule).
Timeline:
Sun. Apr. 26 - Open House, dry land - 1st 8 & under swim skills assessment date (optional but encouraged) ; 2019-20 membership or a non-member guest waiver required
Sat. May 1 - 2020-21 SORA membership required to get in the water going forward
Mon. May. 4 - First practice for all swimmers ; swim team registration deadline - 2nd swim skills assessment date - assignment to A or B group
Mon. May 11- Regular practice date - Final swim skills assessment date
If your child cannot pass the minimum skills policy by May. 11, you may talk to our coach for her recommendation to try again at a later date.
We hope to have a fun, safe and competitive season this year!
Go Stingrays!!
