Mighty Whitecaps Swim Team for Special Olympics

Mighty Whitecaps Swim Team for Special Olympics

The Mighty Whitecaps is your community's Special Olympics Swim Team. We also have unified partners and volunteers from the community involved. We compete at regional and state-wide meets.

The Special Olympics program is based on competition, and our coaches work on those skills, as well as making time in the water successful and enjoyable. Individuals aged eight and above with an intellectual disability (ID) are eligible to participate in Special Olympics swimming.

Please wear an appropriate swimsuit and goggles; swim caps are also recommended. This is a competitive Swim Team; we do not provide swim lessons to entry-level athletes. Athletes must be able to swim independently.

Dates: Wednesdays, February 4 to April 8, 2026

Practice Time: 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at the DHS pool.

Regional Meet: Sunday, April 12.
