Athletes in the Swimming Program must have the potential to do the following:

  • Enter the water independently

IMPORTANT NOTES: 

  • This program includes a mix of athletes under 18 and those over 18, and our policy is to require a background check for athletes over 18. 
    • These two age groups will work with coaches in separate pools, to best meet each groups needs.
    • The background check is free and none of your personal information is stored in our system. 
    • You will receive an email from michelle@sportable.org with the background check form if you need to complete it. 
  • NOVA does NOT allow athletes that are incontinent to use their pool facilities. 

Please read through each page carefully to ensure that all information is provided accurately.
