Youth Sports

Swim Team

The Sharks Swim Team is open to swimmers from ages 5 to 18 (senior in high school). Each swimmer must be an active YMCA member the entire swim season. The Sharks have a winter season and a summer season. They offer a two-week trial to those who aren't sure the swim team is for them. Ask the desk for more details or see the Shark Website at www.jaxysharks.us. See more information on the Swim Team page under Aquatics. (YOU CAN JOIN THE TEAM THROUGHOUT THE SEASON)  Contact Danielle, 217-245-2141.
