Roll Marlins Roll!

Our competitive swim team, DSMY Marlins, is a year-round youth and adult swim team offering high quality professional coaching and technique instruction for all ages and abilities.

Striving to create memorable experiences for young athletes in a supportive and nurturing environment, we emphasize character development, respect and sportsmanship. Swimmers learn the meaning and understanding of hard work, teamwork and fairness while developing meaningful relationships with coaches and teammates.

DSMY Marlins is a member of YMCA Swimming, USA Swimming and Masters Swimming. Tryouts are offered in Fall and Spring, while new swimmers may be accepted throughout the year.
