Have a Question?
Here are some common questions asked by new swimmers! If you have any others, feel free to contact us and come to our fall info meeting!
Why join swim club?
Swim club is a great oppurtunity for those students who still want to continue swimming in college, but not at the varsity level. We have a varying degree of competitive level of swimmers on our team. Anyone can join! It also is a great place to make new friends.

How much does it cost?
Initial fees for swimmers run around $125 for the year or $75 a semester. In addition, we pay meet fees for every away meet. These include the price of hotels, required fees from the opposing team, and gas. These range from about $30 - $60 depending where we travel.
What are away meets like?
We often travel throughout the southeast! Past meets have included: Georgia Tech, Clemson, University of Florida, South Carolina and more! We all carpool to the meet and stay in hotels. Depending where we go, we usually leave on a Friday afternoon and return on Sunday. We have about 2 to 3 away meets a semester.

Do we have a home meet?
Yes! In addition to our away meets, we hold a home meet once each semester and invite multiple schools to come and swim. We know how to host a great swim meet, so expect a lot of fun out of these ones!

When and where is practice?
Practice is held Monday through Thursday from 8pm-9pm, though that time is subject to change due to scheduling needs of the Gabrielson Natatorium. You get to practice in the same Olympic-sized swimming pool as our coveted UGA Bulldog Division I swim team. Practice is always conducted in short course, however. 2017-2018 practice requirements are laid out under the 'Join' page. Dry land practices are held on Mondays and Wednesdays at 7:15pm before practice.
