| The Nazareth Narwhals is a summer league team run by BLUE Eagle Swim Team. The Narwhal Season goes approximately from late May to the end of July. Practices are offered 4 days per week with a 5th day just for FUN. We will begin practices indoors at the Nazareth Middle School the week of 5/19. Once Nazareth school is out for the summer, practices will be inside at the school the week of 6/16 and then outside at the Nazareth Borough Pool starting Monday 6/23 through the end of July. We have 7 team meets for 2025. The meets are in the evenings and those dates are 6/26, 7/1, 7/3, 7/8, 7/10, 7/15, and 7/17. There are a couple of weekend invitational meets families can opt in or out of and the league Championship meet is July 26th. Swimmers must compete in a minimum of 3 regular season meets in order to be eligible to qualify for Champs.
There is a one time charge of $220 per swimmer per season. Multi-swimmer family discount is as follows:
- 2 athletes – 5% off
- 3 athletes – 10% off
- 4 athletes – 15% off
- 5 athletes - 20% off
There is a $200 workbond per family due by the first practice. No check is cashed unless you do not fulfill your volunteer obligation. Every family needs to volunteer. It is usually 3 or 4 times. Once registration is complete, we can calculate what the exact number will be. If you are experiencing financial hardship and want to know your options for partial or full scholarship, please email us!
