Membership in Other Swim Clubs

Membership in other swim clubs is permitted under the following conditions:  

• Consult with the coaches.
• The other team must be an official USA team or high-level club—not another Penn-Jersey team or a team comparable in level with the Lopatcong Swim Team.  Some of the areas USA teams are:  ATAC, TRAC, EMAC, WET, LVA, and Jersey Gators.
• The USA team practice schedule takes priority in case of a conflict.  Lopatcong coaches must receive notification of such conflicts.
• USA swimmers should attend practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays (meet days).  Notify coaches of conflicts.
• Lopatcong Swim Team members who regularly attend practices and meets have priority in meet lineups and relays.
• Lineups may be worked around the USA swimmer’s schedule, but coaches must receive notification at least one week in advance.
• Participation in the Lopatcong Invitational is recommended.
