| Interested in joining Splash's competitive program? Here is the Who, What, When, Where and How! If you still have questions, please contact us. |
| Membership Fee |
- New members are charged a one-time $75.00 membership fee, which covers registration with USSSI. This does not include the first month’s dues.
- All members are required to pay the yearly USSS membership. This fee is paid once a year (usually in September) and is approximately $60.
|
| Monthly Dues |
- Dues are based upon the swimmer’s age for the current competitive season.
- Dues for swimmers 16-17 & 18-19 are $255.00/month, payable through July.
- Dues for swimmers 13-15 are $230.00/month, payable through June.
- Dues for Intermediate swimmers are $140.00 a month, payable through May.
- Dues may be offset by the sale of King Soopers certificates. The team makes a 5% profit on the amount of certificates sold; for example, $500.00 worth of certificates equals $25.00 in dues.
- Dues are not dependent upon the number of practices or meets attended.
|
| Basic Equipment |
- All Splash swimmers are required to purchase one set of dress sweats (jacket and pants required). Purchase of dress sweats and travel bags may be split into monthly payments when purchased in October (as long as payment is completed by June 15th of the current competitive year), and may also be offset by the sale of King Soopers certificates.
- For practice each swimmer will need a swimsuit, swimcap, goggles and nose clip. Nose clips can be purchased from the team for $2.00/each.
- For meets each swimmer will need a basic black swimsuit (no color on the suit), a plain white cap, goggles & nose clip. Suits for team routine competitions will be provided & paid for by the team.

| Practices |
- All practices are held at Sheridan Pool. This pool is located just west of the corner of Federal & Oxford (between Hampden & Belleview).
- All new swimmers have practice on Monday and Wednesday from 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
- All 13 & up swimmers practice Monday & Wednesday from 5:30 – 8 pm, Thursday from 7-9 pm & Saturday from 9:00 am – 12 noon.
- If unable to attend a practice it is important that the team coach or head coach is notified in advance.
|
| Season |
- Synchronized Swimming is a year-round sport. Splash begins their official practices about the same time school starts (early September). Younger swimmers usually finish up their competitions by the first part of June & are encouraged to continue conditioning and skill training with Splash through the summer. Those swimmers qualifying for national level meets will swim in competitions through the end of July, and some will then take August off.
- Many Splash swimmers swim on summer club speed swimming teams. Because of summer club restrictions, year-round synchro swimmers are not allowed to swim on summer club synchronized swimming teams.
