The coaches will notify your swimmer (and for younger swimmers, parents) when they believe your swimmer is ready to proceed to the next level of the team, based on skill, strength, stamina, age and emotional readiness. Please read descriptions of each team level for prerequisites. You may contact the coaches directly to find out more about your swimmer’s progress.
Sometimes coaches will recommend that swimmers start to attend some but not all sessions of a higher level for a week or two to confirm readiness. Sometimes, they will recommend an immediate change.
The club will begin billing for the higher team level at the start of the next calendar month. See Team Fees for full details. LAMVAC requires 10 family volunteer service hours per swim year (September through June) for Advanced Tadpoles and 20 family volunteer service hours per swim year for higher team levels.
At each team level from Piranhas to Seniors, LAMVAC also charges the team's annual fee.
Mountain View swimmers switch from Eagle Park Pool to Rengstorff Park Pool from mid-June through July and to Foothill Pool in August, with different schedules than the rest of the year.
