Welcome to the Summer 2010 Swim Season!

Registration is now open!

 BCSC Swim Team Online Registration

This year, registration for the Burke Centre Swim Club (both Penguins and Stingers) will be done online. Please read the information below before proceeding with your online registration.

Online registration is currently open. Early bird registration continues until April 30, 2010. The cost for early bird registration is $115 per swimmer for the first two swimmers and $90 for each additional swimmer. Registrations completed after April 30, 2010 will be automatically charged an additional $50 fee. If a swimmer withdraws from the team for a reason not related to the swimmer evaluation, you will receive the registration fee minus a $10 non-refundable processing fee.

*Please note that families must also be members of the Burke Centre pools to participate on the swim team. Go to www.burkecentreweb.com for pool membership information.

Information for families new to the Burke Centre Swim Club

All new swimmers (including siblings that have not previously participated on the team) will be required to pass a swim evaluation. The evaluations will be held Tuesday, June 1, 2010 from 4-7pm at the Commons Pool. Swimmers will be evaluated to ensure that they meet the Red Cross Level III performance criteria, which requires swimmers to swim 15 yards (front and back) and float and tread water for 30 seconds. Swimmers do not need to know all competitive strokes. If your child does not pass the evaluation, you will receive a full refund of registration fees.

Families who have not swum for either team will be assigned to either the Penguins or Stingers team. Efforts will be made to honor requests, but preferences are NOT guaranteed. Families will be notified of their team assignment prior to the parents meetings in May. For more information about the Stingers and Penguins teams, please go to www.burkeswimclub.org
