Take Your Mark

LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Swim Club UW will participate in the College Club Swimming 2021 Virtual National Championships! The virtual event will run from April 9 to 18 and we are planning on hosting an intrasquad swim meet at the Nick. You'll have the chance to swim in the competition pool under a meet-like setting. This is an exciting opportunity and great end-of-year celebration for all of us.

Please complete all of the following steps to make sure you're registered with CCS and SCUW.
  1. Make sure you're fully registered! Check here to see if you're up-to-date with our requirements. If not, revisit our registration directions. If you need help, please email Ben Cook, our Vice President.
  2. On the College Club Swimming website, log in to your account using the "Swimmer Login" tab. Once you are in, scroll down until you see "2021 CCS Virtual National Championships
    Hosted By College Club Swimming". Click on "Declaration Due" on the right.
    1. You may sign up for up to 4 individual events. Select your events by entering a seed time in the space allotted. Note that our event order is slightly different from the CCS event order listed. Click here to view our event order when planning your events.
    2. Press Save.
  3. Fill out this Google Form to let us know what your four events are. We will also be offering a relay time trial, so let us know if you are interested in swimming those!
We're working hard to book a 2-day meet at the Nick with touchpads, the scoreboard, and everything else you're used to. Stay tuned for more updates regarding the meet in the coming weeks.

Sunday practices will look a bit different in the weeks leading up to Nationals. We'll run time trials on the West side of the pool so that everyone can get seed times and remember how to race. Keep watching the weekly practice updates on our website to know when those days will be.

We've been waiting a long time to race! Keep your eyes peeled for more updates in the weeks to come and get excited!

Member Registration

Be sure to complete your registration for the spring 2021 season. You won't be able to attend practice without paying dues; your dues allow us to rent pool space at the Nick.

Practice Reminders

We've eliminated weekly practice limits. Join us whenever you can, we can't wait to see you at the Nick 😎
Weekly Schedule
Monday: 8:45-9:45 PM (34 swimmers)
