What is Summer Swimming?

Summer swimming is a competitive swimming season that begins in May and ends in late August and a non-competitive season that runs from September to May. Many parents choose to enrol their children in summer swimming because the competitive season is only 3 ½ months long, and occurs primarily during the summer months. This allows their children to throw themselves into the sport during the summer, and to participate in other activities during the school year.

Do I need to volunteer at a swim meet?

Squamish Pirates is a volunteer run organization. To be able to run swim meets we need parent help. The expectation is that you volunteer 10-15 hours over the season. We will provide training for those new to swim meets.

How many times a week can I swim?

During the competitive summer swimming season from May until August you can swim as many times a week as you like. Our program has sessions everyday that include drylands and swimming. The Summer 2024 schedule can be found below.

When can I sign up?

Registration for returning swimmers will be in March, followed shortly by new swimmer registration. Information will be sent via email to returning parents and will be posted here and on Facebook for new parents looking to register. Exact dates will be posted soon.
