REOPENING UPDATE: New information regarding New York State gym reopenings has become available in the last 24 hours, however, we still do not know what this means for the City. We will update families as we learn more. Please be on the lookout for mandatory parent meetings to review our updated reopening guidelines in next week's newsletter.

Registration Update

Registration details for the 2020-2021 AGUA season will be provided as soon as Asphalt Green receives a reopening timeline from the State and City. We are continuing to monitor local guidelines and will update you as soon as information becomes available.

In the meantime, please ensure your Active username and password is up-to-date. Click here to log in or update your password.

Declaration to Return for 2020-2021 Season

In response to strict capacity guidelines set forth by New York State, we need an accurate count of how many swimmers plan on returning to AGUA for the 2020-2021 season. Our goal is to finalize the number of athletes and minimize roster reductions while providing a safe experience that maintains our standard of competitiveness and excellence. Without your confirmation by Sunday, August 23 at midnight, a swimmer's roster spot for the 2020-2021 season will be lost. If you have more than one swimmer, you will need to declare for each athlete separately. Select "YES" to confirm your declaration. Please select "NO" if your swimmer does not plan to return.
