About the West Laurel Wahoos Swim Team

The West Laurel Swim Team is an age-group competitive summer swim team that participates in the Prince-Mont Swim League (PMSL). Our team focus is on developing younger swimmers while supporting the competitive goals of the more experienced team members. We emphasize good sportsmanship, teamwork, building confidence, and having FUN!

• Hour long practices are held weekdays throughout the season (June and July)
• Swimmers have opportunities to compete in Time Trials, PMSL meets, the Laurel Invitational Swim Meet, and the West Arundel Aqua Ducks Mini-Meet (swimmers 10 & under).
• We have many social events including Friday potlucks, ice cream social, breakfasts, and our closing awards picnic/pool-party.
• All WLSC members, ages 5-18 years, are invited to join the team. New swimmers must be able to swim a distance of 25 or 50 meters (depending on age) and tread water for 30 seconds in the deep end of the pool.
