Our 28th Season of Summer Swim Team
The Symons SHARKS Swim Team was formed in 1990.
Who can join?
The SHARKS swim team is made up of area youth boys and girls ages 5 to 18. You need not be a member of Symons Recreation Complex to join the team, and it is not necessary to be a great swimmer either. You’ll be amazed at how quickly your skills improve!
