Annual Membership Dues
To join our team, you must pay annual membership dues to the team directly, and purchase a membership from one of the governing bodies for masters aquatics competition.
TNYA Annual Membership
The joining fee for TNYA is $75; this fee goes towards the Team’s general operating expenses and is not refundable. TNYA membership automatically renews each year at the end of January until cancelled; the renewal fee is also $75.
A 14-day Free Trial Membership is available, which includes two (2) practices.
Join or renew TNYA Membership using MINDBODY.
GOVERNING BODY Membership
In order to practice with Team New York Aquatics, you need to be a member of the national body for your sport — US Masters Swimming, USA Diving, USA Water Polo, or USA Artistic Swimming. The annual fees for these organizations vary. Each of them also offer a free trial membership.
Validation of governing body membership is required to purchase practices.
Our pools permit us to rent and utilize their facilities based on the assumption that everyone is registered with a national body of the sport, which provides our insurance coverage. Please keep your memberships up to date and renew it regularly. Your membership must be validated on your MINDBODY account once per year to attend practice.
Practice Fees
All practice fees and subscriptions must be purchased on MINDBODY; you can do so on our Join TNYA page.
Pay-Per-Practice Fees
For maximum flexibility, you may pay for each practice as you go. The per-practice fee is $30 per practice, regardless of sport.
We also offer, for speed swimming only, a Splash Pass where you can purchase 5 practices in advance for a discounted $125 (or $25 per practice). Splash passes are non-transferrable, but do not expire.
MONTHLY Subscription PLANS
We also currently are offering the following monthly subscription plans. Subscriptions are a less expensive alternative for regular attendees, and they help support the team. The table below sets out a notional per-practice rate for each subscription option assuming you attend all possible practices (and, for unlimited, 3 practices per week).

Subscriptions are “use it (within the week) or lose it“. A week begins on Monday and ends Sunday. Subscriptions renew each month until cancelled.
