The Carefree Crocodiles Swim Team is a recreational program offering children ages 5-17 from Greenwood and surrounding communities an opportunity to "get their feet wet" with a splash of competitive swimming. Our team members practice for 1 hour four times a week at the Carefree Club Pool. Practices are held during the morning on M, T, Th, & F. There are 2 practice times 7:30-8:30 or 8:30-9:30. Any athlete is welcome at either practice time. During practices, our coaching staff provides instruction on proper stroke technique, starts, turns, and other components necessary to compete in meets. Please note that the Swim Team is NOT a "Learn To Swim" or swim lessons program. If you are interested in such a program, please visit our swim lessons page. While it's not a requirement for team members to know all the strokes or to have perfect technique, they must be able to swim comfortably in deep water.
The Swim Team is a member of the Community Swim Conference, and we swim against four other teams from the Indianapolis area. At the end of the season, a conference meet is held with all five teams participating. The dual meets usually last 2.5 to 3 hours long. They are scheduled in the evenings beginning the second week in June with Conference meet scheduled for mid July. To see the complete schedule, please visit the schedule page.
Online Registration & Payment for the Summer Season is available at our registration page. Registration opens in mid April. The team will be limited to 145 swimmers.
The Carefree Crocodiles Swim Team is governed by a board of parent volunteers. The board meets regularly to attend to the needs of the Swim Team and works closely with the Carefree Club, Inc.
