Welcome Spring Ridge swimmers and parents
Our team wouldn’t exist without each of you and the support of our entire community.
Swimmer Eligibility
In order to be a member of the Sharks, a swimmer must be a resident of the Spring Ridge Community and have a valid pool pass. At this time, non-residents are not able to swim on the team, even as a guest.
Eligible swimmers must have not reached their 19th birthday on June 1st. In order to participate on the team and in meets, swimmers must be able to continuously swim the length of our main pool (25 meters), without touching the wall, pool bottom, lane lines, or ropes.
Rules
All swimmers and family members must abide by the Spring Ridge Pool Rules when using our facilities. These rules are reviewed, updated, and distributed each year by our Spring Ridge Board of Directors. They are also posted at the pool.
In addition, as members of Frederick Summer Swim League (FSSL), our entire team must abide by the FSSL Rules.
Swimmer and Parent Responsibilities
Swimmers and Parents are required to use good sportsmanship at all times and be supportive of all team members. They are expected to treat all swimmers, coaches, parents, and officials with respect. At meets please report to the volunteer coordinator early if you are working that meet (parents). For swimmers please report to the clerk of course early for your events. If you are not swimming a meet please notify the coach as early as possible.
Our MISSION is to promote fun and competition in our community through the sport of swimming.
We have a VISION of young swimmers from our community that enjoy competing throughout the summer, exhibit good sportsmanship, understand the relationship between effort and success, improve individual stroke execution, and appreciate the teamwork necessary for a successful season.
Our GOAL is that every swimmer improves (confidence, stroke execution, or time) and wants to return next season.
