2025 Long Course Registration
Welcome to the Springfield YMCA Swim Team Electronic Registration platform for our upcoming Long Course swim season! You can now register your swimmers online at any time during the day. Families who registered in the fall with the Year Around Montly billing will automatically be added to the Long Course Roster. If your swimmer is on this list and they are not going to be participating you need to notify Kelly/Alex. If your athlete's name does not appear on the list it means you do need to register your athlete for the Long Course Season.
Billing and Roster Groups
For the Long Course season we will have Five different Billing groups.
Beginner, Age Group, Junior, Senior Prep, and Senior
Roster Groups for the Long Course season will be expected to be similar to the roster groups of the Short Course season, with changes made for swimmers aging up as appropriate. We will be assigning rosters for those registered on March 28th so everyone is aware on March 29th what their athlete's group and billing will be. We will not finalize roster groups until the registration process is complete, though if you have an athlete who has aged up a group and would like to ask you may feel free to do so. We know since this registration is getting started later than normal and Spring Breaks are coming up for many athletes that registrations may also be late. Please communicate with Kelly or Alex if you have any questions.
Payment Options and Schedules
The Long Course Season will run April 7th through July 31st. The season is split up into 2 smaller season if you choose to take one of those paths. Spring Training will take place April 8th through May 31st. Summer Training will take place May 27th through July 31st. You can also register for the Long Course Season (1 Payment for April through July) or Long Course Monthly (4 Monthly payments April through July). Depending on the size of the team, there may be a consolidation of groups in which case some athletes may have practice days of the week altered. You can view the prices for Spring Training, Summer Training, Long Course Season/Monthly plans here. If your athlete is on Scholarship at the YMCA please contact Alex for adjusted prices. Those who registered for Year Around Monthly Billing will have the same Billing as the Short Course season.
The practice schedules for April/May will be similar to the Short Course Season practice schedule. The Summer practice schedule will include more practice times for all athletes since we know summers can be busy and having more practices means more opportunities for athletes to attend. As well, we try to have all groups finish earlier in the evening in the summer. We will begin morning Long Course practices at the Nelson Center for most groups on May 28th. We will communicate a more precise schedule for June/July in May at the latest.
We may run a slightly different practice schedule for the week of April 7th through 12th just because Kelly and Alex will be returning from a couple meets that require lengthy travel and may not both be available the entire week. We will make sure any schedule changes for that week are shared ahead of time.
No payment needs to be collected during the registration process, though you are able to pay any outstanding balances. Fees for Long Course season will begin the 1st of April.
We look forward to having you join the Springfield YMCA Swim Team and are excited for another great season!
