WHY SHOULD MY CHILD BE A
SWIMMER?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
(FAQs)
FOR NEW
SWIMMERS
Evaluations need to be completed by the end of
July. We will not be doing any evals in August, and we
currently have waiting lists for the Surfer, Breaker, Typhoon,
Green Crest, Blue Crest and Tidal Wave squads.
When and where are new
swimmer evaluations?
All new swimmers to BWST need to have an evaluation done before
they can join the team.
What to wear?
Swimmers must come to the evaluation session ready to swim. This
includes:
- Proper swim training attire. Baggy
shorts or "beach wear" are not acceptable. Call or email if you are
unsure what this means.
- Goggles
- A swim cap if the child needs
one.
What to expect?
Evaluations will determine if the child is ready for organized
competitive swim training. They are comprehensive and can be
physically stressful. All activities are age appropriate and
simulate what athletes will experience in actual workout
sessions.
Why should my child swim?
Blue Wave Swim Team is a USA Swim Team in the Ashburn Village.
There are many benefits to getting your child involved in
competitive swimming, including:
- Swimming promotes physical
development.
- Swimming develops aerobic
endurance and is one of the most beneficial forms of cardiovascular
exercise.
- Swimming enhances a
child’s natural flexibility and promotes muscle
development.
- Swimming develops superior
coordination.
- Swimming is the most
injury-free of all children’s sports.
- Swimming is a sport that will
bring children fitness and enjoyment for life.
- Swimming promotes time
management and is one of the top academically achieving
sports.
