About the season
The Reading YMCA runs a competitive swim team for swimmers at every level, with coaching focused on proper stroke technique and endurance. Swimmers train with the team, build camaraderie and work toward their best times in competition.
The team is divided into groups. Developmental is for swimmers ages 8 and under and for first-time swimmers of any age, who must be able to swim one lap of freestyle or backstroke. Bronze is for swimmers ages 12 and under and for swimmers who need work on the four competitive strokes, diving and turns. Silver is for swimmers ages 11 and over with strong stroke technique who can lap-swim at least 3,500 yards. Gold is for swimmers ages 13 and over who can lap-swim at least 5,000 yards with excellent stroke and turn technique. There is also a High School group.
Developmental practices run Monday through Thursday in the early evening, with a maximum of three days a week. Bronze practices Monday through Friday in the early evening, up to four practices a week. Silver practices Monday through Thursday and Friday in the evening, plus Saturday mornings. New swimmers should email Coach Kim Evans, Director of Competitive Aquatics, before registering so she can place them in the right age group. Registration is online or at the front desk.
