Swim Team

If your child loves to swim or loves the water and wants to be a better swimmer, then check out the Lakewood Swim Team!

Swim Team is available for kids age 7-18 that are residents of Lakewood. It is expected that the child can swim the length of the pool (any stroke)- it does not have to be “pretty”! Generally, kids who live on the “West Side”, within the boundaries of the Lee’s Summit School District, join the Cruisers. Kids who live on the “East Side”, within the boundaries of the Blue Springs School District, join the Lasers. However, membership on either team is open to all Lakewood Kids.
