The Stingrays Swim Team is for any age. The team aspires to create an environment where the swimmers enjoy the experience of swimming through improvement of their stroke and racing techniques, improved personal race times, appreciation of team friendships and team spirit. We offer a competitive swim team, as well as a non-competitive developmental team.
We hope that each swimmer will take full advantage of the team.
