Welcome to our last dual meet of the season! This meet’s theme is Hawaiian. We’ll be swimming at Chapman’s pool since our lights still haven’t come in. Our team will be handing out leis for the meet, and we’re ready to lay down some great times in the pool on Wednesday night! Swimmers, this meet will count towards Sherwood pool records, so if you’re aiming to get your name in the books, you’ve got a chance. Chapman is a meter pool like ours, and it tends to run a little slow, so if we have any records broken, it will be a great accomplishment for our swimmers!

2024 Swim Team Tryouts!
2024-05-22 16:30 - 17:15 | Sherwood Pool, 518 Forrest Park Ct NW, Huntsville, AL, 35806, United States
We’re ready for another stellar swim season this summer!
If your swimmer is 10 years old or younger and is not a returning Sherwood swimmer, he or she will attend tryouts. The requirement for making the team is that your swimmer must be able to swim 1/2 the length of our 25 m pool unassisted. We will have coaches in the water to help your swimmer if needed. After completing the minimum requirement of swimming 1/2 the length of the pool, we will do a little bit of additional work with your swimmer to assess competency in the water so we can place him/her in the appropriate practice group.
If your swimmer is older than 10 years or is a returning Shark, you do not need to attend tryouts. Instead, you can join us for the first practice of the season, which will be right after tryouts!
We look forward to seeing you at tryouts, and GO SHARKS!!!

Time Trials
2024-05-30 16:30 - 19:00 | Sherwood Pool, 518 Forrest Park Ct NW, Huntsville, AL, 35806, United States
First and foremost, Time Trials are used to give new swimmers and swim parents an opportunity to get a feel for the flow of a meet. Time trials also determine who will swim for points in the first meet of the season. And there’s another really important thing we get out of time trials: we run trials similarly to the way we run a meet (it’s actually closer to an Invitational). So it’s a great opportunity for our parent volunteers to get a dry-run in before the real thing!
If you miss time trials, it’s okay! We’ll find an opportunity during practice to get some times. Click the SIGN UP NOW button to sign up for the time trial meet.

Unlike during the regular season, only one relay per age group and gender is allowed at City Meet. Additionally, for City Meet, the coaches will put their best swimmers in their best events. So for most swimmers, there are a lot fewer opportunities to swim at this meet. However, any swimmer who got in the water for at least two dual meets is eligible to swim and can participate, at a minimum, in the 50 exhibition freestyle.
