Click here to register now!


🎉 What to Expect This Season

We’ve got a packed summer schedule full of:

  • Monday Meets, NVSL dual meets on Saturdays, Relay & IM Carnivals, and All-Star opportunities

  • Fun social events like team treats/ breakfasts, pep rallies, and team Tuesdays

  • Dive meets that challenge and celebrate our athletes’ growth

  • Coaching tailored to all levels, from beginners to experienced swimmers and divers


🐠 Meet the Lil’ Rays!

Our Lil’ Rays program introduces our youngest swimmers to the water in a supportive, fun-filled environment. The program’s primary goal is for the “Lil’ Ray” to have fun while learning to swim and preparing to join the swim team in the future. Our coaches strive to help the older Lil’ Rays to become proficient enough, in at least one stroke, to participate in one of our Monday evening swim meets by the end of the season. At the coach’s discretion, swimmers may move up to attend the regular team practices as soon as they become ready.

We are excited to introduce our new Head Coach, Dawson McGill. With patient coaches and teen mentors, Lil’ Rays gain skills and confidence to join the big team in the future.
