Our goal is to provide each swimmer with the tools they need to reach their full swimming potential. In doing this, the swimmer will learn basic swim strokes, team unity, sportsmanship, and most importantly, self confidence. We want to welcome all of our new and returning swimmers and families to the Modesto Mavericks Swim Team.

MVSL has six teams; Tracy Tritons, Ripon Sea Lions, Manteca Dolphins, Turlock Sea Dogs, Discover Bay River Otters… and the Modesto Mavericks Swim Team! Swim meets are on Saturdays starting in mid-May and the season ends with the Championship Finals in July. In addition we have a wrap-up family day with our awards after the Championship meet.

Swimming is truly a family event. You get to spend time with your immediate family members but you also become an integral part of the Maverick family. We know that our families look forward to coming to practice and participating in Saturday meets.

The Board of Directors of the Modesto Mavericks will do everything it can to keep the swimmers and parents informed – we are here to help you and your swimmer(s). Please call on any one of the Board Members for assistance at any time. There will be at least one board member on the pool deck during practices. You can also communicate with us via Facebook and Maverick email.

Please familiarize yourself with the rules of the team and also the rules of the pool deck. Our head coach, Kerra Bispo, will do everything in her power to keep order on the pool deck to keep your swimmer(s) safe. Our #1 priority is safety and our coaches are all trained in CPR, first aid, and most of them are certified lifeguards by the American Red Cross. Please be mindful that you should not talk with the coaches during practice; please save your questions and comments to before/after practices or via email.

We welcome you to the team! The experience is better if you are involved; parents are required to volunteer throughout the year; we cannot run a swim meet without your help. Volunteers can assist with any number of jobs from ribbon labeling, computer assistance, hospitality, relay coordinator, stroke and turn judging (training provided), timing, plus much more.

Welcome to our Mavericks family!
