Seals News

Our Seals have officially wrapped up the 2025 season, which culminated with the Division II Championships at South Carroll on Saturday July 26th.  Our Seals turned in many best times and special congrats to Rahul Shahani who broke the Rollingwood boys 15 and over 50m back team record.  Rahul's time of 28.93s just edged out the record set by Chris Krabbe in 2015 of 28.94s.  Congratulations Rahul!!

Speaking of records... we also need to congratulate Mimi DeOliveira who broke the Rollingwood girls 13-14 50m fly record at the Straehle Invitational meet on Wednesday July 23rd.  Mimi's time of 30.31s shaves 0.2s off of her previous record of 20.51s set at the 2024 Straehle Invitational meet.  Congratulations Mimi!!

The Seals are ready for some time off and look forward to representing Rollingwood in 2026!

Practice Schedule

Rollingwood provides both morning and evening swim practices.  Evening practices are intended for those families that cannot attend the morning sessions and as lanes will be limited.  We ask that you attend morning practices if you are able.  New This Season - 6&Us will not be able to attend regular season evening practices prior to Jul 1, unless cleared by the coaches.  This will help to regulate the flow of practices while our younger swimmers are acclimating and allow the coaches to better distribute their attention across all swimmers.
