Kick off the season with your first official swim!
Time Trials marks the start of our meet season and is an important (and fun!) opportunity for swimmers to set baseline times. These times help coaches evaluate swimmers and build lineups for the first dual A meet, while giving swimmers a benchmark to improve throughout the season.

If You Cannot Attend
If your swimmer cannot attend Time Trials, they may swim up to two strokes at the first B meet.
Participation is strongly encouraged so coaches can evaluate swimmers and build effective meet lineups.
