The TigerSharks swim team is a structured, competitive program of BLAIR REGIONAL YMCA (BRY). Participants compete against other local, regional, and state YMCAs. This traditionally strong program provides individualized coaching through disciplined water and land workouts.
All of our swimmers are expected to participate and wear team uniforms (team suit and team cap) at all league meets and invitationals. We also encourage our swimmers to participate in fundraising activities.
Swim meets are run by the Swim Team Parents Organization. We rely on and expect all of our families to attend meetings and volunteer their time to help run meets.
Meets will be announced through TeamUnify.
