Practice is offered Monday - Friday, from May 5 - July 11. After school practice groups will be based on age of swimmer as of May 5, 2008. For summer practice, swimmers will be placed into summer practice groups based not only on age, but also by skills observed during the after school practice in May. Holidays are May 26 and July 4.

The coaches have posted the summer practice rosters. Links to the rosters for both Balcones and Spicewood pools were sent in the Shark Bite E-Newsletter on May 27.
