The Sierra Sharks Swim Team exists to help kids build the confidence to succeed at whatever they choose to do in life. We do this by encouraging a love of swimming that paves the way for character development and lifelong skill building.

Let us explain: swimming is tough. Practices are often grueling. Races can be cutthroat and determined by a hundredth of a second. And at the end of the day, swimmers are not only racing against the competition, but against themselves and their perceived limitations.

The upside? Swimming builds grit. Swimming encourages character development, patience, goal setting, determination, and true sportsman-like behavior.

And that's why we love it.

As a nonprofit and volunteer-run recreational team, Sierra Sharks relies on the financial support of our community to offset the costs of operation. From pool fees to coaching staff, insurance, equipment, and league fees, there's a lot to cover! We work hard to keep the team affordable and open to all families in our community.

Please consider supporting your favorite Shark in support of our team during our annual Fin Fest Swim-a-Thon fundraiser. We can't thank you enough for your generosity and willingness to invest in us so that we can invest in our swimmers.

Go Sharks!
