Swim and Dive Team
Willowbrook’s Swim and Dive team has won the Division 1 Northern Westchester Swim Conference 13 times! The experienced team coaches are year-round swim coaches and instruct all swimmers in the proper technique of all swim strokes. Our program is designed to include and satisfy the needs of all children, from those children who are testing the world of competitive swimming for the first time in “B” Meets to those swimmers who compete year round. There are opportunities for swimmers at all levels to compete in meets. Willowbrook’s Swim and Dive team is an excellent way to try out team swimming. Between practices, meets, and team social activities, swimmers at all levels have fun and improve their swim abilities in a safe and friendly environment. Over the years, Willowbrook swimmers and divers have repeatedly placed in regional and state competitions.
Swimmers must be able to swim one length of the pool to participate. The swim and dive team is open to all members of the Club. Please speak to our swim coach if you are interested in participating.
Team swim caps (latex) are included in the swim team fee.
An apparel/silicone cap Order Form will also be provided when you sign up. Download the Pedigree Swim Shop order form.
