Look for overflow parking at the library across the street AND enter the pool via the side door because the pool's main entrance will be closed due to Boo-nanza

OUR LEAGUE STRUCTURE HAS CHANGED - The program is now ability based. If your child swam with Tigersharks League prior to this session you may have noticed some changes this session.  Tigersharks changed the structure of our League recreational team on September 1, 2025. we used to group the participants more by age than ability, which often led to advancing some participants beyond their ability to maintain a good stroke or propoer form.

The new structure is objective based Since Tigersharks League program seeks to allow recreational participants to develop a foundation tthat will set them up for success in sanctioned competitions with Tigersharks USA Swimming club. Participants in our top tier Pre-Team Sharks transtion into the USA program after demonstrating proficiency with objectives. Click the link HERE to see our league program skills by level to be acquired with consistency. We will invite your athlete to the USA team when your athlete has acquired the objectives of our top Pre-Sharks League level. Please talk to Coach Jim if you are interested in transitioning into our competitive program before mastering all league levels.
