Junior Killer Whales (new in 2026!)

Who It's For:

Swimmers who are comfortable in the water but new to swim team and need some extra practice to be ready to participate in team meets.
Generally kids 10 and under, but placement is based on ability not age.

What to Expect:

Short practices (first 30 minutes of the 10&u practice slot!) from June 1 through July 16.
Coaches are experienced Killer Whales veterans and trained lifeguards who are often in the water right alongside your child, focusing on freestyle and at least one additional stroke.

A Welcoming Environment:

Junior Killer Whales Parent Meeting before your child's first practice where you can ask any questions.
Part of the team in all respects, but won’t compete in a meet until coaches feel they are ready

When the coaches think they are ready:

Junior Killer Whales can “graduate” to the main team and be invited to swim at a Saturday dual meet based on coach assessment at any point during the season.
We are also tentatively planning a special mini-meet for all Junior Killer Whales, scheduled for the last evening practice on Thursday, July 16.
