2024 Swim Team
Program Description:
Tiger Sharks is a recreational summer swim team. A great way to improve swimming, make friends and most of all have fun! Swimmers ages 7 & up that meet the swim team skill requirements may participate.
​
Jr. Tiger Sharks is an extension of the Tiger Sharks. It is designed for those who want to start the swim team but do not have the stamina to practice for an hour. Swimmers ages 5 and up that meet the junior swim team skill requirements may participate.
​
Tiger Sharks Elite is for the advanced swimmers on our team and will involve extra meet opportunities. Elites will practice during both Tiger Shark practice times, though it is recommended that more advanced swimmers sign up for the 8am Tiger Shark practice slot. To join Tiger Shark Elites, sign up for the regular Tiger Sharks and talk with the coaches on the first day of practice about tryouts. If there is interest, we may extend the Tiger Shark Elite season into the fall and possibly year round for an advanced club swim team.
