award winning covered bridge "crocs"
We have a very exciting 2020 season planned for all of our swimmers and divers! Get ready for a fun-filled summer of pancake breakfasts, age-group outings, and pep rallies!
After an undefeated season last year, our swim team is moving back up to the “C” division, and we are looking forward to an exciting season with lots of competitive meets. We are thrilled to welcome back our head coach, Luke Wister, as well as our assistants, Maddie Franke and Tommy Schurer. We are also continuing our pre-team program for younger swimmers who aren’t yet ready for the demands of the 8 and under practice. We strongly encourage you to sign your swimmers up for spring swimming to prepare them for the start of our season, which is less than 12 weeks away! We will once again be having our own spring warm-up program, led by Coach Luke, taking place this year at Nexxt Level in Voorhees throughout April and May so please stay tuned for details!
We are excited about our 2020 dive season as well. We are happy to announce that our very own Lexie Young will be our new head dive coach. We hope to welcome all of our current divers back to the team, and we would love to see some new faces as well. Again this year, if you are on the swim team and would like to dive, we are offering half off the dive fee so your children can spend their entire morning at CBSC! Please encourage your children to try our dive team. It is fun, exhilarating, and proves to build confidence.
