Competitive Swim Team
Our Mission
The Newberry Marlins Swim Team strives to foster a lifelong passion for swimming by providing a supportive, affordable, and competitive environment for youth in our community. We welcome swimmers of all levels—teaching beginners the fundamentals of swimming while helping advanced swimmers refine their competitive strokes and reach their full potential.
Our mission is to develop strong swimmers and outstanding young people by promoting teamwork, discipline, and confidence. Through the sport of swimming, we aim to shape character and build leaders who excel both in and out of the water.
About the Team
Our Newberry YMCA Swim Team, The Newberry Marlins, competes in the Columbia Swim League during the summer season in May and June. Our team continues to grow and now includes more than 90 swimmers ranging in age from 4 to 18 years old, with athletes of all skill levels.
As a YMCA program, the Marlins proudly incorporate the YMCA core values of Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility into everything we do. Our coaches and volunteers work to develop strong swimmers while also helping young athletes build confidence, perseverance, and teamwork.
