COMPETITIVE COMPETITION DATES

Included in the training fee: 

1. A latex swim cap
2. A nose clip
3. Participation in a full day Choreography Camp
4. Participation in Club Watershows

Not included in the training fee:

Association Fees – fees for Manitoba Artistic Swimming and Canada Artistic Swimming will be paid through RAMP when registering.

Apparel:  Athletes in the competitive streams will require:

1. Black swimsuit, white cap and plain goggles for figure competitions.
2. Wardrobe Kit (requirements vary by program).
3. Routine suits and headpieces are selected by the coach and ordered through the club. Costs will be added to your account.

Competition Fees: There are 4-6 competitions per year, and athletes are charged fees for each event in which they participate. These fees range from $35 to $75 per event at each competition. “Events” include figures, team, solo, duet or combo at a given meet. All provincial stream athletes compete in the figure event and a routine event (usually team).

Volunteer Levy:  Competitive families are required to participate in the club’s volunteer program. Requirements vary by program and are outlined in the Volunteer Plan on our website: VOLUNTEER PLAN

Fundraising Levy: Parents/guardians of competitive swimmers are expected to participate in the club’s fundraising program. As a non-profit organization, fundraising helps keep program fees affordable for all athletes.

A $400 fundraising levy per family is collected by cheque or e-transfer and is fully earned back by selling the club’s designated fundraising items.

Fundraising packages will be available for pickup at the Kickoff Event on September 12. Payment of the fundraising levy must be paid by September 12 to receive your fundraising package. Families requiring an alternate payment arrangement must contact the club in advance.

Travel Costs: Travel amounts to be confirmed once competition schedules have been released. 

Note: Programs are subject to minimum registration and pool confirmation. Final schedules and locations for classes up to December 31, 2026 will be confirmed in August 2026. January 2027 schedules and locations will be confirmed once pool allocations are finalized, expected in December 2026.

In the 2025-2026 competition year, please register for the appropriate program as outlined: 

Athletes interested in solo and/or duet opportunities must indicate their interest during registration. A Google Form will be sent to all interested athletes mid August to collect information needed for routine scheduling.

At Aquatica, we do our best to accommodate each athlete’s individual goals. Available training times will be communicated to families before the start of the season. Due to uncertainty surrounding January pool availability, opportunities for additional routines (solos or duets) may be more limited
than in previous seasons.

Additional training fees include pool time, coach time on deck, as well as coaches’ preparation time for choreography, practice planning, and music editing.

Solo and duet training will begin the week of October 12th 2026.

Qualification for the Canadian Prairie Championships (CPC) will be based on results at the Land Legacy Invitational, where athletes must earn a qualifying position to compete.

Note: If an additional training session is cancelled due to a statutory holiday pool closure or a competition conflict, it will be rescheduled. Coaches and families will work together to arrange a suitable make-up session.

Additional Training Fees Provincial Stream

This covers 1 hour/week of training from the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving weekend until CPC and/or Nationals.

This is just for 1 hour of training (not repeating) and dependent on coach availability.

*Athletes swimming solos or duets will require additional competition suits and headpieces and will be invoiced for the additional competition fees.

Coach Assignment: Solo and duet fees are based on the assigned coach. While the club may assign a higher-level coach when appropriate, Aquatica Synchro reserves the right to adjust coaching fees accordingly. Families will be notified in advance of any fee adjustment.

Aquatica partners with certified strength and conditioning professionals to deliver age-appropriate, athlete-focused dryland training for all Provincial and High Performance swimmers. These sessions help build strength, improve movement quality, and reduce injury risk—developing athleticism on land that translates into power, stability, and confidence in the water.
