Mustang Mamas and the Swim Coaches will be available to answer questions about summer league swim team , onsite registration will be available , and swimmers may try on the team suit . For our returning swimmers , the team suit will be the same one we used last year .

Swimmers must be between the ages of 4 and 18 as of June 1 , 2018 . The HBCC Swim Team is open to all HBCC families with swim privileges and in good standing . The HBCC Mustang Swim Team is a club team in a recreational league . Swim Practices are held in order to help swimmers improve their strokes and learn new strokes . Swim team practice is not a time to teach basic swim lessons . The ratio of coaches to swimmers is too great to provide a one - on - one lesson experience . While we want to encourage younger children to swim and help them perfect their strokes , parents should consider some pre - season lessons to help get children ready for the season in order to have a safe and fun summer .
