The MAKO Shark Swim Team is not a class, but a competitive swim team that practices and participates in meets year-round in two different seasons. Swimmers must be able to swim without a floatation device, be at least 5 years old, and be a YMCA member. The fall season practices begin in September with meets being held October-March. MAKO Sharks must compete in at least three meets per session to qualify to be in conference and state meets.
During the season, the team works on stroke development so every swimmer will walk away from the program with the knowledge of all the strokes as well as a love of swimming. Our goal is to give your child the confidence and competitive swimming skills they need to compete as well as to be prepared for middle school and high school level competition, in addition to developing a life-long love for the sport.
