Swim Practice Information

 

Hello IRONKnights Participants!

As a registered participant of the 2024 IRONKnights Triathlon, your child is eligible to participate in our swimming practices at NPHS. Each practice is broken into four 30 minute sessions. You are permitted to sign up for 1 of these sessions per date ONLY. Each session allows a maximum of 75 participants (first come, first served). In order to utilize these practices, you MUST sign up. We will email out the link for sign ups 1 week before each date. Before signing up, please read the guidelines below:

  • Parents must be present during their child's swim practice and must be seated in the bleachers. ONLY IRONKnights participants are permitted in the water.
  • Floatation devices are prohibited. Kickboards will be available.
  • These are swimming practices, NOT SWIM LESSONS. If your child cannot swim 1 width of the pool, then they are encouraged to sign up for swimming lessons before attending these practices.
  • Arrive 15 minutes before your session to check in at the pool lobby.
  • Swimmers may use the locker rooms on the far side of the pool to change.
  • Goggles are recommended. Masks, swimming shoes, flippers, and snorkels are prohibited.

If you choose to sign up for these swimming times, please be patient (K-2). It takes some time to get the children turns to swim across the pool, especially when we do not know the swimming abilities of all of our athletes. We cannot stress enough that these are SWIMMING PRACTICES, NOT SWIM LESSONS. If your child cannot swim yet, PLEASE DO NOT sign up for a practice slot.

This year our swim practice dates are:

Saturday, April 6 from 8-10am

Saturday, April 27 from 12-2pm

Saturday, May 4th from 12-2pm

Thank you for your understanding.
