The Lakota YMCA Stingrays Swim Team represents the Lakota Family YMCA, in the Southwest Ohio YMCA Swim League. The mission of the Lakota YMCA Stingrays Swim Team is to provide young people with the opportunity to excel in the sport of competitive swimming in a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Christian principles are used to teach team members the value of hard work, commitment, discipline, and team work.

Swimmers are taught a variety of new skills and given the chance to refine those skills as they progress through the program. Competition at local swim meets is encouraged however we strive to maintain a low-pressure and fun atmosphere. Our coaching staff has a passion for swimming and we are dedicated to helping our swimmers develop that same love for the sport. If you are interested in having your swimmer(s) join the team, please reach out to Head Coach Bryce Alexander to set up an evaluation for the team.

All new Year-Round swimmer's must complete an evaluation before registering for the team. For more information contact head coach Bryce Alexander at [email protected]
