Sugar Creek Swim Club’s
competitive swimming program promotes a healthy lifestyle and
provides the youth and families of Montgomery and surrounding
counties with a positive outlet for children’s enthusiasm in
a team environment. The sport of swimming offers youngsters an
opportunity to enhance their physical, mental and emotional
development and challenges them to strive for continuous personal
improvement in and out of the water.
About Our Swim Club
Sugar Creek Swim Club is open to swimmers within and outside of
Montgomery County. You can join the club at any time, but getting
in at the beginning of the season is preferred. Team tryouts are
conducted before each season; with the safety of each child in
mind, we are looking for basic swimming skills in children 5 years
and older.
The team is divded into squads so that swimmers practice with
others at their own level or capability. SCSC coaches determine the
squad most appropriate for each swimmer, and may move swimmers
between squads as they improve over time.
There are two swim seasons per year. During the short course season
distance are swum in a 25 yard course,, like high school and
collegiate swim meets; while long course meets are swum in a 50
meter course, like the Olympics. Within the Crawfordsville Aquatic
Center, this is achieved by turning the orientation of the lane
lines between the long and short sides of the pool. The short
course season runs approximately from September to March, while the
long course seson is April to August.
