This Section has general information about team: the swimmers, the coaches, the pools, and the parents.
Covington is a community team, open to any swimmers. There is no club membership required: anyone can join us. (Please do!) By league rules, swimmers who have USS "Q" times can't swim as many events as non-Q swimmers, to help maintain the flavor of summer swimming.
The Covington team has created a home for Los Altos swimmers for over 35 years, and we are proud to be able to continue to offer this popular summer program for youth. Our philosophy is to build a team of kids who love to swim, giving major emphasis to good stroke technique and good sportsmanship. Through our program, swimmers develop strong friendships on the team and a love of the sport. They respect the coaches, they want to improve, and they have fun.
Parent Testimonial:
"This is our first experience with swim team. My girls are 7 and 9. They are having fun and learning too. As a parent, I find the organization extremely well run while still remaining casual. Thank you to all those in charge, behind the scenes and especially all the terrific coaches. Great job!
See you at the pool."
To join the team, swimmers must be able to comfortably swim a lap (25 yards) without stopping.

We hope you'll join us for another great summer of swimming!
