Somerset Valley YMCA Swim Team
The Somerset Valley YMCA Swimming Team strives to enable swimmers to grow as individuals, achieve their goals as swimmers and expand their overall potential in a nurturing, safe, yet demanding environment. In doing so, we (coaches, parents, volunteers, officials, and other support staff) hope to develop enthusiastic, dedicated swimmers who are capable of responding to the demands of a highly competitive program. We strive to remain a dominant swimming program in New Jersey and to become a highly competitive swimming power at both the regional and national levels.
