Fountain Green Swim Team

Welcome

Dear Parents:

Welcome to the Fountain Green Swim Team! You will find that your whole family will enjoy the camaraderie of the team, from practice and meets to the social events. Our goal is to include everyone to make it truly a family affair and to have FUN! The FGST Dolphins have a long tradition of success in the Harford Swim League.

Each year, we have a chance to be at the top of the league standings and the competitive nature of the meets will hopefully lead to positive life skills for all our children. More importantly, we hope that the effort made this summer will allow your children to improve their swimming abilities while increasing their enjoyment of the water.

Our parents have the reputation as being the best in terms of volunteer support for the team and we look forward to your involvement. We can’t run the program without your help. Our emphasis will be on team spirit, self-improvement, and good sportsmanship. At our first few team practices, we will discuss some programs that are planned to help develop these things at all age levels without the kids even thinking about it. Using mentors, games, and cheers, we hope to achieve our team goals and support each swimmer’s individual goals, whatever they may be.

We have a great coaching staff that will support your kids, regardless of their ability. They have many years of experience and several swam in the league when they were younger or are on the team now, so they know how to motivate and direct the swimmers to help them do their best. We hope you will support them and the rest of the team to make it a positive time for all. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or any of the other swim team council members, the coaches (outside of practice times), or other parents.

There are many that have lots of experience and would be happy to help you out. We all look forward to another great year.

Randy Slotnick, Director FGST

2019 Welcome Package

2019 Swim Meet Survival

FG Swim Team is a summer swim team that participates in the Harford Swim League from Memorial Day until late July.

We typically have 8 meets during the season and conclude with a swim championship (HSL Champs).

Our swimmers range in age from as young as 5 to 18. We have daily practices (both morning and evening) with many coaches to assist our young swimmers. New swimmers will need to be able to swim the length of the pool unassisted to join our team and participate in meets.

We pride ourselves with the participation of all parents helping to volunteer to make our meets run smoothly. Our season concludes with a huge awards banquet. Our team has grown to over 250 swimmers and have recently had a wait list to join our team.

If you are a FG Swim Club member, please consider joining our team. Non-members are also welcome to join our team subject to space availability.

Look for registration information on this web site in late March.
