Sharkies

What is Sharkies?

Somerset Rec Club offers a pre-swim team program that starts with ages 5-7. Sharkies* is a fun program designed for younger swimmers to introduce them to the SRC summer swim team!

*SRC membership is required and the swimmer must be able to swim 25 yards without stopping.

What to expect:

• Practices are drop-off/pick-up only, no parents or siblings allowed on the pool deck. Viewing area is available.
• High-quality instruction from swim team coaches and assistance in the water
• Participation at each home swim meet
• Exposure to swim team comradery and race day fun
• By the end of the season, many children are able to swim the entire length of the pool in a variety of strokes!
