Also on the MCSL / Montgomery county side Long Branch (near Takoma Park) is a county pool with a division K team that has no pool membership required.

Can anyone currently doing MVP dolphins share how it’s going? Thinking about it for DCs next summer. We’re in DC and there are so few options!

Generally a lap or two with decent form is enough. Every team will be a little different though, so you should reach out to the team you'd be interested in to ask.

TPDC swims out of Takoma Aquatic in Ward 4. Their registration opened last week and they swim in PMSL. The team is a lot of fun.

My kids joined MVP Dolphins last year and really enjoyed it! They don’t do competitive swimming year round and found the meets and practice schedule to be fun and a good challenge. It definitely improved their swimming!

If you are a GS employee or military you can join Fort Myer (military pool) and they also have a swim team. Really nice pool.

Yes there isn't much. Many find themselves venturing to pools in Virginia or Maryland.

Are there any summer swim teams for swimmers in DC?
