The Newtown Torpedoes Registration Deadline is Oct. 3

TORPEDOES REGISTRATION deadline is OCTOBER 3rd

 It’s that time again! The Newtown Torpedoes are gearing up for the 2017/2018 Yankee League swimming season. Stroke and turn techniques will be refined to ready our swimmers for competition. The season will begin with our first meet in early November and will culminate with league championships in early March. In order to compete with the team, swimmers must take part in team practices. Due to the combination of overwhelming enrollment, limited pool space/time, and safety concerns, swimmers MUST meet the following requirements:* Swimmers age 8 and under MUST be able to swim a minimum of 25 yards (1 length of pool) freestyle without stopping and using rotary breathing.* Swimmers 9 and over MUST be able to complete a minimum of 50 yards freestyle (2 lengths of the pool) without stopping and using rotary breathing.* Swimmers will be evaluated the first week of practice.* Swimmers are required to complete in at least three meets during the season. 
THIS IS NOT SWIMMING LESSONS!!!  

EVALUATIONS: For swimmers new to the Fall/Winter Torpedoes Swim Team they will be held the first week in October (Evaluation and Practice schedule will be posted prior to the parent meeting).

TIME/PRACTICES: Practices can be scheduled any weeknight between the hours of 5:30pm and 7:30pm. The time is split up amongst three practice groups. Swimmers will be assigned to a practice group based on age group and ability. Swimmers must practice with the team in order to compete with the team. Swimmers must attend practices 2 times per week for the entire season. This will go in effect after completion of the fall sports season in November. Yankee League swim meets are held on Saturdays. Swimmers must participate in four complete meets during the regular season in order to be eligible to compete in the post season events. Swimmers that have competed with a high school boy’s team are ineligible to compete with the team in Yankee League meets.
