The Scituate KofC Swim Team is a recreational summer team designed to promote fitness, a love for swimming, a friendly competitive energy, and team comraderie among children ages 6-17. While competitive spirit is encouraged, the foremost goals are swimmer participation, fair play, and friendliness between participants and teams.
The season begins the last week of June, and runs through mid-August.
We compete in the South Shore Swim League (SSSL) with meets all over the South Shore.
Away swim meets are typically held on Fridays
Home swim meets are Mondays. We will have at least 2 Home/MONDAY MEETS.
Practices are held - rain or shine - Monday through Thursday unless a swim meet is scheduled for that day, or in the event of thunder and lightning.
Swimmers do not have to participate in every meet, but must swim in at least 2 meets to qualify for Championships.
Parents are asked to help during the meets as runners, timers and scorekeepers.
Eligibility: Swim team members must be paid members of the Knights of Columbus Pool, must be 6 years old or older and be able to swim one length of the pool without stopping.
