In order to be an active member of the Celina High School Swim Team, a member must meet the following standards.

  1.  All swimmers must have a current physical and medical history on file, along with all paperwork turned in to the athletic department, before the swimmer is allowed to participate.
  2. All swimmers must clock in practice time.  Celina High School has lanes for our team on Tuesday/Thursday nights at the Apex in McKinney from 7:30 - 9:00 pm.  If a swimmer is a club team member, the swimmer will be required to attend two Celina HS team practices a month. The coach will set some of the required High School practices.   If the swimmer is not a member of a club team, they will be expected to attend all high school practices.
  3. Parents are required to get their swimmer to practice.  Each parent will be required to sign a waiver, taking all responsibility off of the district for travel.
  4. Inconsistent practice participation will result in the swimmer not being entered in meets.
  5. If school time is missed to attend a swim meet, the swimmer may not miss any school time up to dismissal.  All school work missed is the responsibility of the swimmer and must be made up.
  6. Disrespect aimed at coaches, teachers, officials, timekeepers, or teammates will not be tolerated. Cussing will not be tolerated.  Exemplary behavior is expected at all times.  UIL disqualifications will occur.
  7. Jewelry of any form is not allowed.
  8. Swimmers will be expected to participate in drug testing at the request of school officials.  (Celina ISD policy)
  9. Swimmers must wear appropriate apparel at all times.  The apparel must be supplied by the student.
  10. Swimmers are expected to use discretion when posting pictures, videos, or statements on social media at all times.  Postings should portray a positive image of both the individual and Celina ISD at all times, both on and off campus.
  11. A student must be able to meet the time standards of the meets to attend.  If those time standards cannot be met, the swimmer will not be entered into the meet.
  12. All final decisions lie with the coach and the athletic director.
