We are based in Cinco Ranch I and are part of the Cinco Ranch Swim Team, which also includes South Ranch, Highland Park and Greenway Village. In 2021, North Lake is part of Division 4 of the West Houston Aquatic League (WHALe).

Our summer season begins the first week of May and ends the fourth week of June. Teams compete in dual meets throughout the season and in a regular season those earning qualifying times are invited to participate in the Meet of Champs at the end of the season. Qualifying swimmers from the Meet of Champs are then invited to compete in WHALe's All Stars meet held at the end of June. The Meet of Champs and All Star meet will not be held for the 2021 season.

Parents MUST stay off of the deck during practice.

If you need to speak with a coach, kindly wait until practice is over or speak with a board member. It is the coaches' responsibility to keep all our swimmers safe with minimal on-deck distractions.

Your swimmer must swim during their own age group practice or have special permission to do otherwise. If a swimmer needs to swim in another age group, they must be able to participate and keep up with that age group on their own.

Families, please note that the information below is applicable in a typical season. For 2021, volunteer expectations will be relaxed as we will be conducting our meets virtually, during practices, and thus not need a full suite of volunteers. We will need volunteers for a few key activities, such as timing during those morning practices designated for virtual meets. Please be aware of those emails/requests and be ready to assist. 

In a normal swim season, each family of a Cinco Ranch Swim Team swimmer is required to volunteer to help with the swim meets. The following are the requirements, policies and procedures for all volunteers during a normal swim season.

Minimum Requirements

Each family must volunteer a certain number of times during each of the meets, during the swim season, based upon the number of swimmers in that family:

1 Swimmer (14yrs or under) = 2 volunteer requirements
2 Swimmers (14yrs or under) = 4 volunteer requirements
3 or more Swimmers (14yrs or under) = 5 volunteer requirements

Each family is required to commit to their volunteer duties. All families will receive email notification when volunteer sign-ups are open and must sign up for the appropriate number of positions in order for their swimmers to be eligible to swim the next season.
