Rivershyre Tiger Sharks 2006 Welcome Packet

Welcome back!!!  This year will be interesting. The League has formed 3 Divisions among the 20 teams. We are in Division 1, the biggest and hardest. Yeah!

This packet was put together from our website. Please visit us at www.rivershyre.org/rts for all the latest information, announcements, important dates, scores, results, top times, handbook, photos. Non-Rivershyre Residents can join the swim team. For more details click here.

This year, we will have a swim lesson program. If any swimmer needs basic swimming instruction; floating and breathing, They will be in this program until they are ready to begin swim team practice. This way, the coaches can concentrate their workouts according to their skill level. Once they can start doing laps or lengths, they can join their perspective age group levels.

Our motto: We desire a fun learning experience for our kids while bringing the community closer together. Our goal is that your child learns the sport of swimming, develops good sportsmanship, and meet new friends in the process. Maybe they take their swim experience to the next competitive level in whatever sport they choose. We encourage any swimmer willing to swim to come join our team. Somehow we will get them to the other side.
