The Preserve swim team is a member of and regulated by the Rocky Mountain Swim
League (RMSL). This is a recreational league consisting of 18 teams split into
three divisions; A, B and C. Placement within a division is determined by RMSL
using numerous factors. The Preserve is in the "C" division and we will swim
against five other "C" teams during the regular season.
The Preserve Swim Team joined the Rocky Mountain Swim League (RMSL) in 2007. We
operate as a nonprofit organization with all of our revenues coming from
registration fees of participants. The major expenses include coaches salaries,
ribbon and trophy costs, computer software and other supplies needed for meet
operations.
All homeowners in the Preserve are welcome to participate on the Preserve
swim team. The Preserve reserves the right to invite swimmers from adjacent
neighborhoods who do not have a neighborhood pool, to join the Preserve swim
team; however, they must abide by the Preserve's nonresident pool policy.
There are only two major RMSL rules that most directly affect our swimmers:
- the age category in which your child will swim is defined by your child's
age on June 1st.
- The League requires swimmers to participate in at least 10 practices and
2 regular swim meets to be eligible for Prelims and Finals.
The Preserve Swim Team functions on the RMSL meet schedule of approximately 6
weeks, lasting from June 5th through July 10th. The league runs prelims and final
competition rounds the week of July 12th through July 171th.
