What to Expect

Rookie Camp is mandatory for all NEW Kingfish swimmers and optional for returning swimmers aging up to 7/8. The purpose of Rookie Camp is to ensure that all of our swimmers are pool safe. Our goal is to get every swimmer in a Kingfish cap. If you are apprehensive about putting your child on the team, please come and give it a try. Your swimmer may surprise you!

Once our coaches have determined that your swimmer is pool safe, please do not return to the Pool Safe Verification time during Rookie Camp. This allows our coaches to spend as much time as possible with those who require additional help.

In addition to ensuring all swimmers are pool safe, we will offer various clinics to help new swimmers get ready for the season.
