8 & Under Evaluations
SF Pool
Start: 4:30 PM
End: 6:00 PM
All 8 & Under Swimmers on Big Team will need to complete this evaluation. The evaluation session will be a drop in event, so please come anytime between 4:30-6:00 PM with your swimmer ready to swim. We have had a large number of 8 & Under swimmers over the last few years and we would like to be able to provide each swimmer with the best practice environment for their ability. We will once again split this group into Green and Black practice groups based on assessments. The assessment will consist of swimming one 25m length of each stroke (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly). SFST's long standing rule on Big Team participation has been swimmers MUST be able to swim freestyle and backstroke proficiently.
