Our Mission. Our Vision. Our Values.
Welcome to the YMCA of South Florida Swim Team! Our team is a year-round recreational and competitive program offering instruction, training, and competition to people of all ages and abilities. We aim to create a high-character environment that encourages each athlete.
We believe swimming provides numerous benefits, including grit, resilience, responsibility, lifelong fitness, time management skills, earned self-confidence, and a personal pursuit of competitive excellence. Competitions also allow swimmers to experience both success and defeat in a supportive environment, which teaches valuable skills for later in life.
