DATE/TIME/LOCATION:

Last Chance Tryouts will be held on Monday, August 24th from 7 AM – 8 AM at the Circle C Swim Center (5919 La Crosse Ave. #100, Austin, TX 78739). This will also be our practice facility.

​If it’s storming and the pool is closed, we will have tryouts at a later date/time TBD.

​

STEPS TO COMPLETE BEFORE TRYOUTS:

1. Have a current sports physical complete on RankOne.  
2. If you are not a Circle C resident, complete this form so you can access the pool on tryout day. You can put “Bowie Swim” as the program you are registering for. 
3. A parent or guardian needs to fill out this form agreeing to the volunteering requirements of the Swim and Dive Booster Club. 

ADDITIONAL TRYOUT NOTES:​

• Please arrive 10 minutes early-on time and be prepared to swim and race!

• Please come in your suit and have your goggles, swim caps ready!

• Bring a water bottle for hydration and towel.  No other equipment is needed for tryouts.

• Swimmers:  plan to be in the water for approximately one hour.

• Please clean up after yourself.  Circle C is our “home” and we want to keep it that way.

​

TRYOUTS ARE MANDATORY.  If you cannot make this tryout date, please email Coach Carr immediately so we can schedule a makeup tryout:  chloe.a.carr@austinisd.org

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Bowie Swim and Dive Team is highly competitive and not a program to learn how to swim, for recreational swim, or to get PE credits (although you will). All swimmers trying out should be able to swim all four strokes legally including proper turns. Although not necessary, it is highly recommended that students have experience on a swim team before considering trying out.​

​​

Expectations of swimmers:
​

• Be on time

• Use proper technique in all four strokes

• Come with a positive attitude

• Ask questions

• Complete all sets, regardless if you make the interval

• Race

• Do proper turns

• Dive properly off the blocks

• HAVE FUN!

Below are suggested times in order to make the team, but they are not guaranteed.
