Two Young Boys Doing Swim Laps
Location:  Town Park Beach (Park at Cadigan Park, 500 Candlewood Lake Rd.)

The team this summer will be a co-op team with New Milford.  Details on schedule and locations will be posted by May 1st. 

The Brookfield Muskrats is one of Brookfield’s longest running programs. Any child, age 6 to 16, that is able to swim 25 yards is encouraged to join. Brookfield Muskrats is a great first experience in competitive swimming and an opportunity for all children to enjoy the comradery of a team sport and improve their skills through frequent, small group interaction. Daily practices are designed to teach new skills, improve existing skills, and develop strength and endurance.

The season will begin on Monday, June 23rd and continue through the end of July. Daily practices are held Monday through Friday at the Town Park Beach. (No practice Thursday 7/4). Practice times will be weekday mornings, times TBD.  

The team participates in four or five weekday meets each season, both home and away. Away meets are scheduled with other local teams in the Stateline Swim League and are no more than a 30 minute drive from Brookfield. During the meets, swimmers are placed into events and compete against others of similar age and ability. At the end of the season, the team hosts a pot-luck picnic, to celebrate the team and recognize each swimmer.

This is a summer swim team with an emphasis on fun and we expect for swimmers to miss practices and/or meets to go on vacation and attend other activities. If a swimmer is attending Camp Cadicopia with us, arrangements will be made with staff to get swimmers back and forth from camp to practice.

Season schedules and handbooks will be available at the parent meeting. Practice times vary depending on age group and may change from times advertised below depending on enrollment. A swimmer’s age is as of July 1, 2025.  All swimmers receive a Muskrats team t-shirt and swim cap.
