Competitive Wildrose Programs

Train 3X/WEEK (WR3X)

Typically our 11-12 Team or second year 9-10 year old swimmer (birth years 2009-2012).

Because of the technical skills they learn, participants who are 11 years or older in the 2021 year are strongly encouraged to commit to a minimum of three times per week. Exceptions are made on a swimmer by swimmer basis, please reach out to the Head Coach with any questions. Younger swimmers can also sign up for this program.

Swimmers enjoy team training and competition, including competing in individual figures skills, travelling to out-of-town meets, plus training other aquatic skills like swimming and diving. Swimmers gain a sense of achievement and team work as they have fun.  In the team event, swimmers compete in the age category of the average age of the team members. In the Figures, solo, and duet events, swimmers compete in their age category.

Registration Details

Please note the following when registering your daughter(s):

• All members will be required to set up an account with RAMP, which you will use to register, pay and view your account invoices
• If you already use the RAMP interface (perhaps through another sport) you will be expanding your profile when you log in, but you do not need to create a new account
• At the time of registration you will need to choose the program you wish to register your daughter in. For example, Wildrose 4x week, National Stream 13-15, etc.
• Your credit card will be charged $125 (Provincial Stream) or $225 (National Stream) plus $2. The $125 or $225 pays for the registration with Synchro Alberta, and the $2.00 is for the inital charge (just the way the system is set up) for the Bingo and meet fees that we all pay come the fall. The $2 will go towards your monthly charge for bingo and meet fees.
