I'm curious how much everyone pays to swim on a monthly basis. The team I used to swim with had to stop due to the University of Washington swim team being cut. We were getting both our pool time and coaches from them. However, the pool is still operating, but now under the intramural department. We're trying to regroup and rent the pool from them, but may need to revise the fee structure.
I'll put up a poll in case anyone wishes to remain anonymous, but I'd really like to know how much you pay per month and how many practice sessions per week that amount gives you access to. Also, please mention if there are any one-time or annual fees to be a member of the team, etc. Another useful piece of info would be how much your pool rental is, if you know. Thanks for your help!
$65 a month for 28 coached workouts a week. Yep, 28. Three 1-hour workouts in the morning, one at mid-day, and a 90 minute workout in the evening, Monday thru Friday. Three 1-hour workouts Saturday morning. All in a six-lane pool divided by speed from 1:15 to 2:00. You swim as many or few as you want for the monthly fee. Cal students pay significantly less. I have yet to find any other team with as many workout choices. I have also yet to hear of anyone on our team doing all 28 workouts in a week. I've toyed with the idea but then decided that other things, like sleep and sitting around doing nothing, were more important.
