The Sea Devils fall swim program is designed to help swimmers enhance and develop the skills they worked so hard on all summer! We are excited to announce that our program offers an option for younger swimmers who may not yet have participated on a swim team, as well as an option for older swimmers looking for additional functional training.
We offer 3 program options for the Fall Swim season! For our younger swimmers, a pre-team that focuses on developing swimmer confidence. For our older swimmers, our fall program offers an option for 2 practices per week or 4 practices per week. The days you attend practice each week are flexible and can be decided by you!
Team Registration
Registration will open in early to mid July for our Summer swimmers and in late July to early August for our non-Summer swimmers.
Interested in joining Fall Swim? Email Coach Greg for registration information.
Requirements
Swimmers must be able to complete 1 full lap of the pool unassisted. All new 6 and under (including previous Little Devils) must complete a swim evaluation with a coach before starting practice. Check out our evaluation page to view team expectations and schedule an evaluation. Email Coach Greg with questions about Clinics or evaluations.
Equipment
Coaches ask that swimmers come to each practice with the following:
- Goggles
- Kickboard
- Fins (slips-ons, NOT straps)
- Practice suit (no baggy suits and no swim shirts)
- Cap (for those swimmers with long hair)
You can buy equipment and practice suits at our Swim Outlet Store.
In the Summer, these practice suits can be used for competitions until your summer suit is ordered. Swimmers are strongly recommended to have a team suit and cap for swim meets.
Our team store sells team caps, and our Squadlocker has options for more apparel. Families can order through Amazon or Sports Basement. First-time families should go to Sports Basement or another local sporting goods store to try on their fins.

Swim Meets
Meet Participation in Fall Swim meets is optional. Swim meets will include events of varying lengths for all age groups, ranging from 25 to 200 yards. Swimmers will have the opportunity to sign up for the events they want to swim. If a swimmer chooses to participate in a meet, parents will be required to volunteer for a timing shift. Pre-Team swimmers will not be able to compete at the swim meets.
Group Assignment
Red Group
The Red Group is designed for all swimmers ages U7 and for new* 8-year-olds who are water-safe and can swim one full lap (25 yards) unassisted. This group focuses on building strong foundations in legal freestyle and backstroke, with continued introduction to breaststroke and butterfly. Practices emphasize body position, breathing, coordination, and comfort following structured practice routines. Swimmers are primarily prepared to race 25-yard events, and depending on the season, in-water instruction may be provided to support skill development. Swimmers must be able to listen and follow instructions, communicate clearly, use the restroom independently, manage basic equipment (goggles/fins), and safely enter and exit the pool without using stairs or ladders.
*New: A swimmer who has never completed a season of summer recreational swimming or year-round USA Swimming on a swim team.
White Group
The White Group is designed for all swimmers ages 8–10 and new* 11-year-olds who are water-safe, can swim at least two full laps (50 yards), and are legal in three or more strokes. Swimmers continue refining technique in freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly while building endurance through continuous swimming. Athletes are introduced to and expected to use a pace clock, learn to swim on intervals, and begin managing longer practice sets. Swimmers are prepared to race primarily 50-yard events, with some 25s as needed. There are no in-water instructors. Swimmers must be able to independently manage their equipment, follow multi-step directions, read a digital or analog pace clock, circle swim safely, and transition between sets with minimal reminders.
*New: A swimmer who has never completed a season of summer recreational swimming or year-round USA Swimming on a swim team.
Black Group
The Black Group is designed for all swimmers ages 11 and older who can swim at least four full laps (100 yards) and are legal in all four strokes. This group emphasizes advanced stroke technique, stamina, and race preparation, including structured swim, kick, and drill sets completed on a pace clock with changing intervals. Swimmers train for 50- and 100-yard events and are expected to manage their equipment, timing, and transitions independently. Practices are fast-paced and challenging, with a strong focus on accountability, effort, and preparation for championship-level competition. There are no in-water instructors. Swimmers must be able to fully manage their equipment and time, read and adjust to changing pace-clock intervals, complete complex multi-step sets independently, circle swim efficiently, and demonstrate consistent focus, accountability, and self-management throughout practice.
NOTE: Swimmer age is based on the swimmer’s age as of June 15 of the following year.
Practice Cancellation
There may be times when practice and competition are canceled. This is mainly at the discretion of the coaches and swim Team Leadership. If practice is canceled, the coaches or Team Leadership will do their best to contact families as early as possible.
Here are some guidelines:
"Excessive Heat" of a Value 4 or 104+ degrees (CDPH)
"Pool Temperature" is <76 degrees (ARC, USMS)
"Poor Air Quality" of an AQI of 150+ (ARB)
"Water Contamination" of foreign substances (CDC)
"Inclement Weather" and lightning on the forecast (NWS)
These guidelines apply: if the coaches or Team Leadership determine that practice is unsafe for any of the above reasons or additional reasons, the practice will be canceled.
No daily refunds or rebates will be offered if a practice is canceled due to unforeseen circumstances, such as "Excessive Heat, Pool Temperature, Poor Air Quality, Inclement Weather, or Water Contamination."
Refunds
If you cancel your registration before the first day of practice, we will retain a $50 administrative fee. Refunds will NOT be granted after the start of each season. All refunds will be processed in batches and may take up to a month to process. Discount code refunds will NOT be granted for families that do not enter discount codes at the time of their registration.
