DOLPHIN SWIM TEAM

The Boothbay Region YMCA Dolphins Swim Team is coached through a philosophy of providing a safe, fun learning environment where swimmers of varying ages, abilities and goals can succeed and thrive in and out of the pool. Promoting lifelong learning, fitness and sportsmanship will be stressed. Participants must be 6 years old by December 1, up to age 21. Swimmers must be members of the Boothbay Region YMCA or the CLC YMCA (CLC members receive the member rate).

• Swimmers must be able to comfortably swim 25 yards freestyle, 25 yards backstroke and tread water for at least 2 minutes at the beginning of the season. 
• Swimmers are required to attend at least 3 YMCA Swim Meets and the YMCA Maine State Championship Meet in early March (each swimmer swims only one of the 3 days based on their age). 

• Financial Assistance is available.

Start times haven’t been decided yet, but usually away meet warm-ups are at 11 AM and home warm-ups are at 11:30. Plan to have your swimmer on deck 30 minutes prior to the start of the warm-up. 

Swimmers need: a team suit, goggles, a team swim cap, healthy snacks, water, a towel, and clothes to keep them warm on deck between events. 

Swimmers are not allowed to leave the pool deck until the end of the meet to support their teammates in their events. They are allowed to use the restroom but must inform a coach. 

No cell phones on deck during swim meets.
