 The Colorado Athletic Club Stingrays, a USA Swimming Team, offers year-round training, competition and practice groups for swimmers of all ages and ability levels. It is the goal of the Colorado Athletic Club Stingrays to offer age specific training for all of our athletes geared towards challenging each individual and developing each individual to the best of THEIR abilities. There is a place for EVERY swimmer on the CAC Stingrays – provided they make the minimum level of swimming proficiency as this is not a learn-to-swim program.
Placement in training groups is based on grade level in school. However, coaches may opt to move a swimmer into a lower training group better suited to their swimming ability if necessary for the athlete’s optimal performance and learning setting. Athletes will not move beyond their grade level and ANY moves will only occur within the first three week of the SCY season and the first week of LCM Season.
Swimmers participating in a Level 1 (Competitive) training group below are expected to participate & compete year-round from August 2013 until July 2014. If your swimmer is not interested in year round participation or if the practice commitment for that group is too high – please let the coaches know to place them into our Level 2 (Developmental Track).
All interested swimmers will be required to have a club membership affiliated with their family for participation with the exception of 3-month Senior 2 memberships.Senior 2 Swimmers looking to swim for more than 3 months are required to join the team. Contact our membership office at 303-790-7777 to speak with a membership rep for more information on the various options for Stingrays parents and family members.
