If your swimmer can swim at least 25 yards and is ready for the next step, we would love to have them join the Marlins family this summer!
Our first meet is scheduled for May 29th, so be sure to reserve your spot early as the season moves quickly!

We can’t wait to see both familiar and new faces in the water this summer!
