BBT - Swimming

Belair Bath and Tennis Club

2009 Swim Program

Swim Director: Patti Bayly baylyswim@comcast.net
Swim Chairperson: Charlene Alter charalter@aol.com

General information: The Belair Bath & Tennis swim program is directed by Patti Bayly, who is happily celebrating her 30^th year at BBT. As in previous years, her responsibilities will include FREE swim lessons, swim team experience and competition and special swim instructional programs. Patti and her staff continue to be the local Bowie City Swim Team Champions and rank very high in the top division in the PMSL. Patti is without a doubt the best swim coach EVER IN THE WORLD !!! We are very happy and proud to have her on our staff at BBT. Patti can turn any non-swimmer into a lover of swimming for life and have fun doing it!! The BBT swim lesson program consistently….. year after year puts over 350 children of all ages successfully through the swim lesson program (all levels of swimming) and we are extremely proud of this accomplishment.

The swim team competes in the ‘A’ Division in the Prince-Mont Swim League. BBT is fortunate to have many kids swimming on our team so BBT provides two swim meet schedules …. ‘A’ and ‘B’ schedules. This allows swimmers of all abilities to compete in more meets and more events. Any BBT member who has not reached his/her 19th birthday by May 31, 2009 may participate with the team. Patti encourages any child that can swim the width of the 3-4 ft. shallow area of the pool to come out and please give it a try. Swimmers may join at any time during the summer. If a child joins the team after morning practices begins, that child must be able to swim the length of the pool which is 25meters. Permission slips are required and must be in the pool office before your child can compete. They will be available at the parent meeting and anytime from Patti. Afternoon Practices will start on Monday, June 1 (4-6:00pm). Morning practices will begin Friday June 19
