Frequently asked questions
Contact us to join our email list or come to one of our Callouts at the beginning of each Semester. You will then get an email listing out more information about the team. All you will have to do after this is our pay dues to officially join!
We welcome swimmers of all levels of experience. Our coaches will usually have different practice intervals to tailor the workout intensity to your level of fitness. We, however, do not provide any swim lessons, so at a minimum, you will need to know how to swim.
Dues are about $95 per semester. These cover meet, hotel and travel fees throughout the semester as well as complementary apparel.
Practices are held at the Morgan J. Burke Aquatic Center on Monday-Friday. Practices run from 6:30-7:30 PM Monday, Wednesday and Friday and are from 8:30-9:30 PM on Tuesday and Thursday. All these practices are optional.
Coaches will typically write sets in the 2800-3000 yard range per practice with intervals occasionally varying by lanes. Each day will have a different focus (ex: IM, stroke, spring, distance, etc.) and are all optional to the individual. Lastly, our sets are focused on quality rather than quantity, though are still meant to challenge you. Our student coaches simply want you all to have fun and help you achieve your goals!
All you will need is a swim suit, cap and goggles. Kickboards and pull buoys are provided at the pool.
We typically have about 3-4 swim meets per semester and usually have at least 1 away meet per semester. All of these meets are optional.
Swim meets can be anywhere from 1-2 hours (Northwestern) to 4-5 hours away (MSU or Ohio State). For all meets that are further away, we will stay overnight in a hotel.
