Sea Lion Swim Team
Swim Team
The Lisle Park District Sea Lion Swim
Team competes in the West Suburban Conference with teams from Downers Grove,
Glen Ellyn, Hinsdale, Lemont, Wheaton, Clarendon Hills, and Western Springs.
Swimmers are evaluated individually based on skill level and are divided into
"A" and "B" Divisions.
Those considering joining the Sea
Lion Swim Team are strongly advised to have completed several American Red Cross
swim lesson courses and to continue with swim lessons simultaneously while
swimming on the team. Although previous participation in swimming lessons is
suggested, it is not required as long as participants meet the minimum swimming
requirements listed below.
This program is not designed to replace swim lessons.
Swimming
Requirements
Ages 8 & under One (1) length of pool (25 yards)
Ages 9-18 Three (3) lengths of pool (75 yards)
Age Groups
Sea Lion Swim Team is divided into competitive age groups as follows: age 8 and
under, 9 and 10, 11 and 12, 13 and 14, 15 through 18. Participants will swim in
their appropriate age group based on their age as of June 10.
Coaches
The coaching staff will provide an atmosphere of sportsmanship and competition
for both beginning and advanced swimmers. This program is primarily for children
and young adults who have previously mastered swimming basics and are ready for
a more competitive atmosphere.
Uniforms
Swim team uniforms (team suits, sweats, shirts, and caps) are not required, but
are popular with the swimmers. There will be one suit fitting to be held at the
Lisle Park District Community Center, 1825 Short Street. If you would like to

the fitting. Orders placed after the scheduled fitting date are not guaranteed
