Encore's 2025 Summer Swim Season
Encore Swim Team is a Summer competitive race team in San Jose. Swimmers from the ages of 5 to 18 participate in swim practices (offered 4 days/week) and swim meets starting May 5 - July 19. Although we are a competitive team, we are known for our fun, family & enthusiastic environment!
You do not need to be a part of an HOA or be a previous Encore swimmer to join our team. If you would like to be a new Encore swimmer, you will need to attend tryouts and be able to swim across the pool without assistance - once you pass, you are in! Practices and home meets will be at Pioneer High School's pool.
Registration runs Feb 15 - May 20. The 2025 Summer Season will start May 5, with tryouts for new swimmers on May 3. Meets will begin May 31 with a break for July 4th week, with our final Champs meet taking place July 19th.
Information Sessions: We hosted two optional virtual sessions. You can find what was discussed in this Info Session Presentation.
Tryouts: New Encore swimmer tryouts will be held at Pioneer High School on May 3, 10-12pm. Tryouts for each swimmer should only take 10-20 minutes. Your swimmer must be registered to tryout! You are welcome to mail in a check prior, pay via Stripe, or bring your check to tryouts.

We hope to see you this season!

Practices
Unlike many other swim teams, we practice in the late afternoon/evening hours (after work) and you do not need to be associated with a Cabana club to participate!
Practices are 4 days a week – Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, & Thursday at the Pioneer High School pool.
We encourage swimmers to come to all practices and meets, but it's up to you to decide what is best for your swimmer and your summer schedule. Parents are welcome to drop off their swimmers, or watch from the bleachers by the pool during practice.
5:00pm - 6:00 pm 5-8 year olds *
6:00pm - 7:00 pm 9-12 year olds *
7:00pm - 8:00 pm 13-18 year olds
* Note: We will plan to keep the above times unless we see very different age group counts this season.
Swimmers will swim with their age group at practice unless prior arrangements are made with their coach. If your child is in another sport, you can work with the coach to determine when he/she will attend practice.
