Registration Questions

  • Please see our FAQs Section
  • Does my child have to be able to swim the full length of the pool?
    • LJST is not a learn-to-swim program or group swim lessons, nor do we have the ability to assign a coach to each swimmer. Swimmers without basic swimming skills pose a safety issue to themselves.
    • Your swimmer should already have some basic swimming skills before joining the team and be able to swim the entire length of the pool (25-yards) unassisted prior to the first day of practice. (50-yards for ages 11+)
    • Swim lessons are available through the Lake Jackson Recreation Center.
  • Do you have discounts for registration?
    • Unfortunately, we do not as it is very expensive to run a swim program.
    • Alternatively, you could take a free and local CCAA Meet Officials (2 hour) course which would allow you to referee meets during the season. This allows you to get your volunteer hours and $50 per meet. 
      • Home meets require more officials. 
      • No limit on the amount of times you can referee. *While positions are available.
      • Must be 15+
      • Great way for a high schooler to make some money while coming to the meet.
      • Must wear a white shirt to meet.
