TRS conducts tryouts Mon-Thurs at 5:30 pm. While previous swim team experience is not required, swimmers should be able to swim 25
yards of freestyle and backstroke. Coaches will conduct an evaluation and determine whether the swimmer is ready for a competitive
swim team. Placement in a practice group is based upon a swimmer’s skill sets and the practice group that will allow the swimmer to be
successful.
Swimmers should bring a swim suit, towel and goggles.
Try outs take approximately 15 minutes.
Please print out the team paperwork and bring it with you when you try out. Parents will be given an explanation of fees and practice
times after the try out.
If a swimmer is not ready for the team we recommend the American Red Cross swimming lessons offered through the GCISD Swim
Center. They offer lessons throughout the year for young children through adults.
Call the GCISD Swim Center at 817-251-5353 for a schedule of the lesson dates and times. Karen Goodfellow can answer specific
questions you may have about their program.
The required forms (listed below) to join the team may be printed out and brought to the tryout.
We practice at the GCISD Swim Center, located at 2305 Pool Rd, Grapevine.
The Swim Center is on the Cross Timbers Middle School Campus, located in
a separate building across from the school's front entrance.
The map above shows the pool location and driving directions.

There is a $75.00 administrative for new swimmers with each additional
swimmer per family fee of $25.00 and an annual $50 administrative fee for
returning swim families payable when joining or renewing membership on the
team. Additionally, each athlete must join as an athlete member of USA
Swimming. The fee is $63.00 and covers athletes for the calendar year.
Athletes joining in September receive coverage for the remainder of that
calendar year and the next year. The training fees are paid quarterly unless
other arrangements are made with the treasurer. Training fees are due on
the first month of each quarter and considered late if not paid by the 10th of
that month. A $10.00 late fee will be assessed late accounts. Any accounts
that pay monthly will be charged a $3.00 service fee for the second and third
month of each quarter.
Training fees are based upon the practice group the athlete is assigned to.
When athletes are moved up, the account will reflect the change in practice
groups when the next bill is sent.
