Building Competitive Swimming Skills

Our youth swim teams provide children with valuable swimming skills that will last a lifetime. With year-round sessions, swimmers are able to build a strong swimming foundation and friendships at the same time.

The advantages of our youth swim team include:

  • Swim team practices are held in warm water year-round, which is especially beneficial during the fall and winter months.
  • We do not require volunteer hours from the parents.
  • We do not have attendance requirements. Swimmers can attend as many or as few practices as they wish and are able to participate in our swim competitions.

Our swim teams in Irvine focus on improving swimming speed, refining the four competitive swimming strokes, and physical conditioning which help prepare students for competition level swimming. We divide participants into select groups that best match their age and ability level, creating a fun environment for all.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about our swim parties.

How much do parties cost?

The cost of your party will depend on several factors: the length of your party, the number of guests attending, or any special add-ons. Pricing varies by location.

What is provided in a Waterworks party package?

Waterworks provides Deck Guards to ensure safety and to run games in the pool, as well as to help set up and clean up. Plenty of pool toys and rafts are provided to keep your guests entertained. Tables and benches are provided for the out-of-water portion of your party. Lifejackets are available for any children who are not water-safe. Invitations are available upon request. Some locations have a refrigerator available for storing food.

Do you provide invitations for birthday parties?

Yes! Invitations are available upon request.

What party package is most common?

It depends on the age of the children. For children who are 6 years old or older, we recommend a 2.5 or 3 hour party.

What times are parties held?

Parties are primarily held in the evenings on Saturdays and Sundays. Times and specific availability varies by location. The availability for parties at all locations depends on the programming for the weekend.

How much time do the children get in the water? What toys do you provide?

The children typically spend most of the party time in the water. We will reserve 45 minutes at the end of your party for cake, food, and/or presents. Our deck guards will organize and run the pool games. We will provide inflatable toys, rafts and pool noodles for the play time in the pool.

Can I come in early to decorate? Does Waterworks provide decor?

You are welcome to bring in your own decorations for your party. Our team will be happy to help you set up your decor. Depending on the location of your party, you may arrive between 15-30 minutes prior to your party start time. Our Party Coordinator will discuss this with you when they review the timeline for your event. Waterworks does not provide any party decorations.

Can I bring in my own food?

Yes! You can bring in outside food and drinks as long as they are not in glass containers. Please speak to our party coordinator if you would like to bring alcohol.

Is there anything I CANNOT bring for my party?

Glass, confetti, chewing gum

*At our San Jose-Bascom location, we also cannot allow helium balloons.

What time do parties start at the Irvine location?

The earliest time a party can start on a Friday is 1:00pm, and on a Saturday or Sunday is 12:30pm. The availability for parties depends on the programming for the weekend.
