MADISON AREA GROUPS & GROUP DESCRIPTIONS
WHAT IS THE REGISTRATION PROCESS?
- FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE REGISTRATION PROCESS, PLEASE SEE THE "SPRING 2026 PROGRAMMING" PAGE
HOW DOES REGISTRATION DIFFER FOR NEW OR RETURNING SWIMMERS?
- "Returning BAC swimmers" - those who have been active with BAC in the past 12 months - can register right now through Team Unify. Please connect with Coach Jill if you have any questions regarding group placement.
- "NEW BAC swimmers" (or swimmers who have been away from BAC for 12+ months) will need to participate in one of our New Swimmer Evaluations so we can decide on the best group placement! Please do NOT fill out the Team Unify registration at this point.
- You can register for a New Swimmer Evaluation via Google Form and find out more information by clicking the link below

WHAT IF SPACE IS LIMITED?
- GENERALLY, OUR SPRING SESSION PROGRAMMING HAS BEEN ABLE TO ACCOMODATE EVERY INTERESTED SWIMMER!
- Preference is given first to returning BAC swimmers, then to prospective new swimmers. While we cannot guarantee space, historically we've been able to accomodate all interested "returning" BACers.
- Some new swimmers may not be quite ready for BAC progamming.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WS MADISON AND ES MADISON GROUPS
- Obviously, the main difference is the location; our WS (west side) groups are based out of Edgewood, Memorial and Middleton, while our ES (east side) groups are based out of Monona Grove
- Most ES Groups are 'abbreviated' versions of our groups - less offerings and time than the WS counterparts for an appropriately lower fee.
- For Fall '25 we'll offer our ES groups for 1 hour, 3x a week plus the option to attend combined weekend practices.
- We also have some groups - Junior, Junior Premier, Senior, and Senior Premier - that are combined and not listed as either ES or WS
