Highbridge Aquatics
started in the fall of 1990 and is a member of United States
Swimming. The 2009-10 season will begin our twentieth year
of competitive age-group swimming in central Kentucky.
Starting/Ending
Dates: Our winter season will begin
in September and continues through the end of March. Spring/Summer
Long Course season begins in April and continues through the end of
July.
Practice Times:
All of our practices take place at the Asbury
College Luce Physical Activities Center. We typically practice
during the 6:00-8:00 p.m. block on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
Whenever the Asbury College team is not training, our two-hour block
becomes 5:00-7:00 p.m. There is also a Tuesday evening practice and a Saturday morning practice
during the 8:00-10:00 a.m. block. The more dedicated seniors will still have
Tuesday and Thursday mornings, but this is usually just for the more serious
13 & overs.
Practice
Requirements: There are no requirements as far as how often a
swimmer must practice. That is up to each swimmer and each family. The
8 & unders practice follow a M-W-F schedule and I recommend at
least two to three of these per week. For all other beginners, I would
recommend three to four practices per week. As a swimmer becomes more
experienced, they may add more practices per week if they choose.
Weights and morning workouts will be available for the senior age
groups. But the fees are set up to be paid monthly and it
really gets back to what each family wants to get out of the program.
I will continue to educate, motivate, and challenge each swimmer while
trying to remain flexible for each family.
Swim Meets:
All meets are optional and I basically try to schedule an average of
one meet per month.
Fees:
Other than the monthly fees listed
on the FEES page, the only other
cost would be a yearly membership with United States Swimming.
This cost is $68 per year and usually is due in the month
of September.
