Swim Team

Make a splash and try out for a Parks Swim Team! Learn competitive swimming strokes, goal setting, sportsmanship, teamwork principals, and improve your fitness. Have fun and be part of a team and compete against other Parks Swim Teams citywide.

NYC Parks offers talented youths ages 6 through 18 an opportunity to join a Parks swim team. Swimmers train for High Point Meets and the Borough Cup Championship. Practice sessions are held at least three times a week and emphasize stroke technique, endurance and speed training, starts and turns, rules, and sportsmanship. You must pass a swim test to be eligible for the team.
