Join the Tallyn Ridge Swim Team – Summer 2026

The Tallyn Ridge Swim Team is a fun, welcoming summer program where swimmers build confidence, develop strong skills, and create lasting memories. Whether your child is brand new to the swim team or looking to refine their strokes, our program offers a supportive environment that encourages growth, teamwork, and fun.

About Our Program

• Skill Development
  Swimmers focus on all four competitive strokes—freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly—while gaining confidence in the water.
• Positive Team Culture
  We emphasize sportsmanship, encouragement, and pride in being part of a community team.
• Saturday Swim Meets
  We compete in Division 4 of the Frederick Summer Swim League (FSSL). Meets are optional but encouraged and are a great way for swimmers to celebrate progress and team spirit.
