Mini-Gators Summer 2026 Registration
Welcome Back Gators! It is time to register for the 2026 Summer Swim & Dive Seasons!
Swimming and Diving at our Club this summer is a great way to meet new friends and add a little structure and exercise to your summer routine. Our Mini-Gators season is going to be a short 3.5 weeks this year due to the way the holidays and our home swim meets fall. First practice will be June 8th and the last will be July 1st.
TEAM FEES: There is a lot our fees have to cover during our summer swim/dive season including–practices offered 5 days a week for swim, 4 days for Mini-Gators, and 3 days a week for dive, coaching costs, PPSL league and meet involvement, equipment, team shirt, and our set-up with Swimtopia.
NO REFUNDS will be issued once you have signed up/paid.
Mini-Gators will be limited to 20 swimmers.
MINI-GATORS--Mini-Gators will be offered again this year for swimmers who are 5 years of age (5yrs by June 1st unless otherwise approved by team management). Mini-gators is a pre-team program which is intended to introduce our youngest swimmers to our summer team. The purpose of Mini-Gators is to teach your child proper freestyle and backstroke with a start, and to build the strength and endurance to swim the length of the pool by the end of the short summer season. Mini-Gators who are ready can have the opportunity to swim in the last home meet. If your child is able and it is determined by the coach's assessment, they may be invited to swim in more meets as part of our 8 and under group.
Mini-Gators practices will be from 11-11:30. Swimmers will be assigned to a group based on their skill level individually, and relative to other swimmers enrolled. Practices will be Monday-Thursday (4 days a week). Practices will begin on June 8th and last 3.5 weeks, ending on July 1st. Coaches will use the first 5-10 minutes to get the kids warmed up and give some dryland instruction (maybe some running around down in the playground area to get warm on chilly days) and then they will spend roughly 20-25 minutes in the water. Each swimmer must be at least 5 years old (unless otherwise arranged and space allows) and must be able to swim 1/2 the length of the pool without walking on the bottom or grabbing the lane lines. If space allows after an initial registration period, Mini-Gators may be opened up to any 4 year old who are comfortable in the water and ready for stroke instruction (Minis is not appropriate for children who do not want to get in the water and swim). Coaches will assess and group swimmers accordingly. The Mini-Gators will be limited to 20 swimmers for health and safety reasons.
Mini-Gator Assessments will be completed on: June 3rd and 4th from 11-11:30 (it will only take a few minutes so just stop by anytime during that time frame).
You must attend one of these assessment days. If you are unable to attend please make arrangements for your child to be assessed by a coach at another time.
The season will end on July 1st when Mini-Gators will have the opportunity to swim 1-lap freestyle at our last home meet.
