Stingrays Swim Team | Gloucester City Swim Club

STINGRAYS SWIM TEAM

ABOUT THE TEAM:

The Gloucester Stingrays Swim Team is a member of the Tri-County Swim Association of South Jersey. The league consists of multiple divisions and offers us the opportunity to swim against teams similar to our size.

The team is under the direction of Coach Brianna Penney.

The season runs from Memorial Day to the last weekend in July, with most meets occurring on Saturday mornings. If a swimmer qualifies, championships take place in early August.

Children ages 5 (who have a red band)-18 are encouraged to join the team. They will learn to master the four main strokes in swimming: free, back, breast, and butterfly. Not only that, they will build upon sportsmanship and teamwork while having fun in the water!
