** Please note the Pirates/Silver/Red/Sr Prep/Black groups will practice on either Monday or Wednesday each week but not both. Which day we practice depends on things like pool availability, meet schedule and other practice considerations, etc. Please check the weekly newsletter/practice schedule each week.
Note - Days/Times may change subject to pool/coach availability and program needs.
Practice Attendance
At RAID, we do not require practice attendance minimums. Instead, we offer recommendations (see below) to help set realistic expectations for improvement. Swimmers get out of the program what they’re willing and able to put in.
We offer four to six practices per week, depending on the group, to provide flexibility and help athletes balance swimming with school, family, and other activities. As swimmers mature and progress to higher groups, their commitment—including attendance—should increase to support their development.
Recommended Practice Attendance - Below is the recommended number of practices per week by group.
Little Raiders - 2-3 practice per week
Buccaneers - 2-3 practice per week
Pirates - 3-4 practices per week
Silver- 3-5 practices per week
Red/HS -4-6 practices per week
