Follow the steps below on how to join the team:
Schedule an appointment to be evaluated. You can do that by going to our website, lcatpride.com, click on the blue "Schedule Appointment" button on the main page. The only requirement is to be an independent swimmer. Coaches will evaluate and place the swimmer in the appropriate swim level. New LCAT swimmers get two weeks to try us out for free. Aft
er that, official registration with the team would occur by using our website’s registration button to create an account and to formally register with LCAT. There are two annual fees per swimmer -- a team registration fee of $40 and a USA Swimming membership fee (there are two options for the USA Swimming membership fee; there is an option for a “flex” USA Swimming membership at a reduced rate of $20 that would permit swimming in up to 2 swim meets or the full membership rate of $76 with no limitations on the number of meets). The flex membership can always be upgraded to the full membership by paying the difference. If a family has more than one swimmer on the team, the monthly dues for the highest level swimmer are full price. For the other swimmers in the lower group(s), the monthly dues are reduced. Group 1 - 6x per week ($120 per month)
Group 2 - 5x per week ($100 per month)
Group 3 - 5x per week ($90 per month)
Group 4 - 2x per week ($65 per month)
Group 5 - 2x per week ($55 per month)
Finally, when swimmers compete in formal meets, there are entry fees associated with that (the team pays for them in advance and then your account gets billed typically by the following month). You can always discuss directly with the coaches what the goals are for fitness. We are a definitely a competitive swim team, but we have swimmers that may only compete in 1 meet per year.
