We are excited to announce the registration info for the upcoming 2024 Summer Competitive Season which runs from May – mid August. Please review the recently updated Juan de Fuca Royals Swim Club Information and Policies, the Competition Season Schedule (which includes practice and meet info) and Summer Swim Groupings. The Info and Policy document has been updated to reflect the board approved changes to the summer season and outlines several important policies that affect registration. Please take the time to read this document!

This summer competitive season will look different as we continue to encourage our swim club members to participate in the swim meet season that we train for all year! Swimmers have been placed in registration groups, please see the attached document for your swimmers’ group to register in.

If you have any questions about group placement you may contact coach@jdfroyals.ca to request an adjustment, however, please note that the coaches have been assessing your swimmers all winter and took careful consideration in making the placements. Our team is doing the best we can with limited pool space, requests for changes due to schedule conflicts will not be approved.

Swimming this summer is available for the entire summer season only. There is no part time option to swim in the summer competition season. This means that registration will be inclusive of the entire season and your swimmer may attend as many or all the practice times for their group.

The Juan de Fuca Royals Board of Directors has carefully considered the intent and focus of our swim club in making this decision. We feel this decision aligns the club more closely with our participation in the BC Summer Swimming Association. We encourage you to review the refund, hold and cancellation policy before you register for the summer season.
