New Swimmers to RICE Aquatics

Thank you for the inquiry into the program. We currently are beginning to wrap up our Summer session of swimming with Championship meets starting next weekend. At this time we are not taking new swimmers in for the last month of July, instead we will have new swimmer evaluations in August. Our August evaluations are first come first serve via email starting August 1st. We will have all of the info up on our website the last week of July. You will need to email the link provided at that time with all the info listed. We then email back with a specific time and date for each evaluation. We typically have the evaluations the 3rd or 4th week of August with full time practices starting the first week of September. (Our teams takes a few weeks off in early August).

We do have coaches who continue to give private lessons to our swimmers and those wanting to work on technique and etc if you are wanting to keep your swimmer active in swimming and interested post Olympic Trials and pre-Olympics. If this is something you would like to purse send an email to 1on1swimlessons@riceaquatics.com    

Parents - The Rec Center has informed me on an ongoing issue with the mens locker room area (not the exterior single serve mens room). There have been issues with kids entering the bathroom stalls and locking them then sliding out under the door. At this point they havn't pin pointed it to any group but assume it is one of the youth groups using the facility. Please make sure to talk to your swimmers about the usage of the locker rooms and behavior inside them. Swimmers in Group 3 and below should be using the exterior restroom next to our storage room and limitting their access to the larger locker room inside the building.

Thank you for all you guys do,
Coach Jason
