WHAT IS SUMMER SWIMMING?
Summer swimming is our competition-season program, with practices taking place during the week (practices per week depends on the group) at the Ladner Outdoor Pool. Swimmers meet the coaches on the pool deck for a 15 minute activation/30 minute dryland, followed by a practice in the pool that ranges in length (depending on the group). The season will run May 1st 2026 – August 12th 2026. If you have any questions, please contact ladnerstingrays@gmail.com or registrar@ladnerstingrays.com.

VOLUNTEER FEE AND REQUIREMENTS
A volunteer fee of $250 per swimmer (with a max. of $500 per family) is required. It will not be cashed until later in the season and you will be given many opportunities to work through your hours. You can find volunteer opportunities and options in the registration email, or contact ladnerstingrays@gmail.com with any questions.
If you work off the full amount of required volunteer hours, we will tear up your cheque or return it to you. If not, it will be cashed, as partial hours will not count.
Basic program families (division group swimmers): 15 hours, plus 10 hours per additional swimmer (capped at 2 swimmers – 25 hours max.)
Little Stingrays only families: 10 hours per family (no extra hours for additional Little Stingray swimmers)
Masters only families: There are no volunteer requirements, but we encourage you to come help at our home meet, Super 7, if you are able.
