Join us for the summer season!

The summer 2024 season of the Flying Fish swim team begins Monday, June 10 and ends Sunday, August 4.


  • You'll find the summer practice schedule and other information here.


  • With very few exceptions, swimmers will stay with the same practice groups for the summer season.


  • We know many of our swimmers participate in other sports and activities, but we encourage them to also stick with swimming in the summer, particularly if they're in a more experienced group or want to progress quickly.


  • See practice group descriptions and expectations here.


See below for how to register.

Confirm with Head Coach Pete Caragher first

  • If you swam with us in the spring, please email Pete to confirm your spot in your practice group. Returning swimmers should confirm with Pete and register by Saturday, June 1.


  • If you did not swim with us recently or have never swum with us, please email Pete beginning Monday, June 3. We may request an evaluation to determine group placement. We want to find a spot for you!

Register on Community Pass

Once you've confirmed your spot with Pete, you can register on Community Pass. You cannot register without confirming with Pete first.
