Parents,

Similar to last year, the 2025 Registration will consist of Registering with
the Otters Swim Team and Registering with USA Swimming. In an effort to reduce potential errors please ensure you have completed your Otters Registration before following the three steps to Register with USA swimming.

Step1:

All Summer Only Parents need to setup and account with USA swimming. If you already have a USA swimming account from last year’s Otter's registration process or through another team you will skip step 1.

Note:

Parents do not register yourselves!! Only setup your Account. You should not
pay anything as part of Step1!

Year-round swimmer parents you should have already completed this step during your swimmers year-round club registration. Skip to Step 3.

The USA Swim link below in blue explains the process step by step.

If you have any questions or issues, please email [email protected]. In addition, click HERE for instructions to create a parent account in USA Swim. I will also be at Otters Day with Computers to help anyone that needs it. You should now have a USA swimming parent account!!

Step2:

Note: if the member you are attempting to Register is currently affiliated with a year-round club, Skip step 2 and proceed to step 3 where you will send a copy of your Athletes USA Swimming Member Card showing that they are in Good Standing with their Year-Round Club Team. Thank you to those that have already sent their child's Member Card.

For Summer Only Swimmers proceed with Step2.

It is Recommended by USA Swimming to do this on a PC and or MAC and not via the USA swimming Application on your Phone. As there are drop downs that may not work properly.

To Complete step 2, the process of "Renewing" and or "Adding a new swimmer" with USA Swimming and Affiliating your Summer Only Swimmer with the Thousand Oaks Otters you will now need to log into your USA Swimming Parent account and then click the enclosed Team link below. Then follow the directions in one and or both of the files attached to this email. (One for Renewals and One for Adding a new swimmer without a prior USA swimming membership.
