ABOUT US! The Chesapeake Serpents Swim Team is a competitive summer We are open to swimmers of all abilities, ages 4-18 who meet the basic eligibility requirements. Specifically, swimmers 8 yrs old and under need to be able to swim 25 meters (1 pool length) unassisted with minimal stops. Swimmers over 8 yrs old need to be able to swim 50 meters (2 pool lengths) unassisted without stopping. Our challenge is to motivate our swimmers to improve their swimming skills through instruction, repetitive practice and participation in competitive swim meets. We strive to provide a climate of friendly competition where children can develop a love for the sport of swimming, improve their swimming skills, and learn the principles of good sportsmanship. We encourage participation and emphasize that all swimmers, regardless of other swim league affiliations, join us this summer for what is sure to be a fantastic and rewarding season.

2011 SWIM SEASON!
We are looking forward to seeing all our returning Serpents, as well as our new members, and are making plans for an exciting and fun filled summer. This swim team provides a wonderful opportunity for your child to develop and strengthen his or her skills. New this year will be a "Super Serpent" program for children who are comfortable in the water but not quite swim team ready. Click "here" for more information. We are excited to introduce our talented coaching staff with a combined experience level of over 40 years from youth to collegiate. Johanna Milchuck will be our head coach assisted by Brenna Anderson, Samantha Barham, John Newell, and Eric Henniker. More information about membership and associated fees can be found "here". Practices will begin on Monday May 23rd. We will follow the same schedule as last year. For specifics see the practice schedule "here". For a variety of reasons, we may do "dry land" workouts, so swimmers should always be prepared with tennis shoes and towels to sit on. Team suits and caps are required for participation. We will be using the same suit as last year so if yours still fits AND is in good condition, you don't need to purchase a new one. We will take suit orders at registration. Please know what size your swimmer(s) will need or bring them with you to try on suits. We will also take orders for caps, goggles, newly designed shirts, shorts and magnets. All orders will be available for pick up and payment during the first week of practice. Serpent towels and a limited supply of old shirts and shorts will be available for sale at registration for $10 each, CASH AND CARRY.
Volunteers Needed We rely on parents to volunteer at the meets in order for everything to run smoothly. If you can, please take the time to help out and support your team! There are many ways to volunteer that don't require experience. Please take a look at our sign up sheet and see how you can help.
