Competitive Aquatic Teams

The City of Roseville offers two competitive swim teams that practice and compete during the spring and summer. Boys and girls ages 5-18 are welcome to tryout in early spring. These teams rely heavily on parent participation and volunteerism. Each family is required to volunteer a minimum of 14 volunteer hours during swim meets.


Roseville Sharks  Pre-Competitive Swim Team

Program Details:  This team will practice 4 days a week, for 45 minutes to an hour each day.  The team will have two inter-squad meets, and a water polo game through out the summer.  Three days a week will be focused on competitive swimming (strokes, starts, turns, and conditioning), and the fourth day will be focused on water polo.  The goal of this program is to be able to allow more children to participate, as well as prepare them for competitive aquatics in the future. 

Prerequisites: Children must be able to swim 25 yards unassisted.
