 New Swimmers are welcome to join the team anytime! Click here to download the 2011-2012 Registration Packet Click here to download an Aquadogs information flyer. Please contact our Membership Chair to help you get started, and before visiting a practice: Dana Vazzana at 660-620-8112 or email ASA.Aquadogs@gmail.com New swimmers are welcome to visit a practice from deck, however, please submit registration forms prior to entering water. PREREQUISITES: The Aquadogs swim club is for swimmers from 6-18 years of age who have passed Level 5 of a Red Cross swim program or who have most of the skills to do so (click here for a general skill list). Stroke technique does NOT need to be perfect! Ability to dive and/or do flip-turns is also not required (these skills will be team-taught), however knowledge of basic breathing techniques and the ability to swim under water for a short distance is important. (If swimmers are unsure of their abilities, our coaches are happy to evaluate swim skills during a visit and to offer recommendations.) INVOLVEMENT: Aquadogs swimmers, together with their parents, choose their own schedule and level of commitment based on the practice options offered (see Practices). Some swimmers choose to practice at a competition level, while other swimmers prefer to practice at a recreational level. Swimmers are also broken down into groups of Preps, Whites, Reds, and Blues according to age and ability. Swimmers can select from several meets of varying levels throughout the year in which to compete, or simply swim to develop their technique and take advantage of the great conditioning swimming offers!
COST: Cost of team membership depends on a swimmer's participation and skill level (click here for Fees). Additionally, if a swimmer desires to attend swim meets there is sometimes an entrance fee (under $10), which varies for each meet (click here for Meet Information). Fees are charged monthly, and due by the 10th of each month. Swimmers joining the team for summer season will pay one fee at the beginning of the season. All checks should be made out to "Adair Swim Association" or "ASA". GETTING STARTED.... Please contact one of our Membership Coordinators to arrange a start date, and then download and complete the below Swimmer Registration Form (this form is also available at the pool or from one of the Coordinators). A completed registration form must be given to an ASA Membership Coordinator before any new/visiting swimmer may be in the pool with the team (as either a visitor or member). Prospective swimmers may visit the team anytime, but must remain on deck (and cannot enter the water) if registration forms have not been completed. This is to ensure ASA has proper emergency information on file for ALL swimmers in the pool with the team at any time.
