Joining our club...

Thank you for your interest in the St. John’s Legends Swim Club! 

We are a year-round competitive swim club for swimmers from 6 to 18, as well as off-season varsity swimmers, ranging from our entry level Lil Legends Swim School to national qualified swimmers. We welcome all transferring or new swimmers who are interested in joining us to reach out to schedule a Legends Tryout! 

Any prospective swimmer looking to join the St. John's Legends Swim Club must complete a tryout. This will allow our coaches to evaluate the swimmers skills for appropriate placement within the clubs training levels.

Legends Vs. Lessons:
The primary purpose of Learn to Swim programs (swim lessons) is to teach swimmers how to be safe in the water and become proficient enough to enjoy water activities safely. On a swim team, swimmers learn to become strong, confident, efficient swimmers through increased participation, repeated practice, and a coached teaching method. We still focus on stroke technique, but our long-term objective for our swimmers is to gain the skills necessary for better efficiency in the water. Unlike lessons that approach each level with a checklist meant to be delivered in 8-week blocks, the swim team experience is to continuously develop the swimmers’ skills with a season-long (Sept to June) perspective in mind. It is important to keep in mind that Legends are not a substitute for swim lessons but rather the next step in an aquatic journey. 

Interested families can book their tryout slot through our website by clicking the registration menu and choosing Tryouts from the dropdown. Tryouts are held at various times throughout the year based on avilable space in our programming. If you have any questions about the process, please reach out to our Team Manager Christopher at manager@sjlegends.com for additional information.
