H3AC Hurricanes Swim Team

2025 H3AC season information now available!

HHRC has had an energetic and fun-filled swim team for four decades. The swim team currently includes swimmers from Heritage Hills Recreation Club, Homestead Aquatic Center, and Westfall Pool. Swimmers from ages five to eighteen can choose to participate in daily practice at our pool, as well as six dual swim meets with other teams in the Chapel Hill Summer Swim League. The season concludes with a League Championship Meet, which is usually held at the UNC Koury Natatorium. Swim team practices begin in mid-May and conclude in mid-July.

Swimmers compete in age categories as follows: 6 and under, 7–8, 9–10, 11–12, 13–14, and 15–18. The swimmers’ age groups are determined by their age on June 1st. Swimmers must be able to swim one length of the pool unaided to be eligible for the team. Our swim team follows the philosophy of the Chapel Hill Summer Swim League (CHSSL): to provide participants the opportunity to improve swimming skills in an enjoyable atmosphere; to encourage good sportsmanship; and to support friendship and team spirit among swimmers of all ages and skill levels. Our swim team partner is the Homestead Aquatic Center from the Town of Chapel Hill. The CHSSL information can be found on their website.
