The competition schedule is posted below.

There is a fee of $1200 to join the team for the season (September to April). Swimmers are encouraged to apply for bursaries to offset the cost. Details below (under "Paperwork and Forms").

Workouts will start Wednesday September 4. The first ten days will be open tryouts. Everyone should attend as many tryout workouts as possible.

Swimmers are selected as general team members (i.e. not selected for specific events.)

Once the team is selected, swimmers are expected to attend at least five swim workouts per week. For those with conflicts with classes, alternate arrangements can be made.

Note:Please do not come to the pool if you have flu or COVID symptoms!

Swimmers attending September tryouts will be informed if they have been selected for the team by Sunday September 15.

2024-2025 Competition Schedule


Athletic Therapy

Swimmers may arrange Athletic Therapy appointments for treatment for a fee of $30 cash / session. This is payable at the time at the time of the treatment. Please use this booking link in order to access the treatment availability: https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/CarletonUniversityAthleticsTherapy@cmail.carleton.ca/bookings/

If a student does not opt out of their school insurance and is enrolled in a minimum of four classes at Carleton University, they are eligible for a reimbursement of $25/treatment session, up to $300. The onus is on the athlete to submit the receipt to the student insurance.

Alternatively, other options for treatment on campus include accessing the Sport Medicine clinic to book in with one of the physiotherapists for a fee. Again, there is some money reimbursed on the student insurance plan as listed above. In order to book an appointment please go to the Sport Medicine clinic or call 613-520-3511.

Massage Therapy

A few student-athletes each week can get free massages on Wednesday from Algonquin College students studying Massage Therapy. Inquire and book at Varsity Athletic Therapy, the room by the Alumni Hall doors to Parking Lot 5 and the Fieldhouse.

Paperwork and Forms for 2024-2025

To be eligible to swim on the Varsity team, there are a lot of forms to complete!

Team Facebook Group

Join the Carleton Ravens Swim Team Facebook Group if you haven't already done so.

Ravens Athlete Registration System: Athletics Portal

This needs to be completed by everyone every season. A doctor's signature is not needed on the medical form!

Please follow these instructions to register:

Once you have completed the registration, you will be able to see your “Dashboard” consisting of red "X"s and green "check mark"s. The “X”s are not necessarily an indication that you have not completed the content. Each of these sections must be approved by Athletics Administration. The X will change to a check mark once these components have been verified. The Confirmation Page allows you to view all components and will identify any sections you may have missed. Please review the Confirmation Page carefully.

U Sports Portal Registration

All swimmers must register annually in the U Sports Central Portal. Go to: https://usportscentral.ca/. Please be sure to use your Carleton cmail e-mail address when setting up or accessing your account.

New swimmers: Cost is $50. Click "Register" and follow the instructions. After completion, please send me your U Sports ID as Carleton needs this for eligibility purposes. Once you have done that and have been added to Carleton's athlete list, I will let you know and you need to go back in and go through your profile page by page, and sign off on the "Athlete Consent Acknowledgement" on the last page of your profile.

Returning swimmers: No cost. Click "Sign In" and follow the instructions. Note that you need your U Sports ID from last year -- let me know if you need this as I have a list. Once you are logged in, confirm your personal information (page by page) and be sure to sign off on the "Athlete Consent Acknowledgement". Please email me (or tell me) when you've completed this, as I don't get a confirmation email.

If you encounter any difficulties with the system contact me.

Swim Canada Account

Once I register you with Swim Canada, you will get an email asking you to set up or confirm your account and to agree to several waivers.

Apply for a Bursary

Not required, but recommended if you have financial need. The deadline to apply is October 31st. Complete the Carleton Bursary application form in Carleton Central. You will only be permitted to fill this in if there are bursaries that you are eligible for. Some are for students eligible for OSAP and some are not. Check out the instructions.
