The Wyndham Swim Team is an organization of over 200 competitive swimmers of a variety of ages and ability levels. For our newest and youngest swimmers, coaches focus on distances of 25-50 meters with a strong focus on proper technique and drills. We ask that swimmers meet the following prerequisites so that we can ensure the safety of all swimmers. For swimmers who are unable to meet these requirements, a limited number of Junior Team spots will be available. The Wyndham coaches reserve the right to place swimmers in the appropriate group.
