Founded in 2024, the Colby College Club Swim Team strives to promote a fun, safe, and inclusive environment for those interested in swimming! We welcome people of all skill levels and backgrounds - our goal is to host learn to swim events a few times per semester as well as meets! Swimming is a sport that many of our team members grew up with, and Colby Club Swim is a perfect place to continue to enjoy it in a low stakes, collegiate setting.
Practices
Once the semester is in full swing, we run 2 practices per week in the HAARC pool. Practices typically start with a brief warm up, followed by a set including some combination of kick, drill, stroke, and different distances. Practice wraps up with some games and time to chat in the hot tub! The team also frequently gets dinner together in Bob's afterwards. Our practice experience is completely customizable in terms of what people are comfortable with: we will offer sets that vary in level of intensity and difficulty to accommodate the needs of everyone present. There is no expectation or pressure for club members to attend every practice. We understand that life at Colby can get incredibly busy at times, we are just grateful to have this space as a club to unwind, exercise, and socialize!
