kids 5 - 14 years of age to the excitement of competitive swimming. The league is held in the spring with
three teams made up of elementary and middle school kids participating in weekday practices and swim meets. You
don't have to know about the sport, you just have to know how to have FUN!

SUMMER LEAGUE
The next step in the swim team program serves as a continuation of what is learned in the School League. The
summer swim team involves kids 5 - 18 years old who work on the techniques of competitive swimming, including all the
strokes, starts and turns. The competition heats up as the team competes in the Kanawha Valley Swim League
against various teams from Charleston, WV. The
Summer League runs June through July and involves some travel to clubs in the Kanawha Valley.
Prerequisites: School League experience strongly encouraged. Ages 5 and up! Participants must be able to swim
