Thank you for your interest in our programs. Pendleton Swim Club is committed to bringing high quality aquatics to the children and teens of Madison County. We are glad you are considering us as a provider of athletic programming for your child!
Learn to Swim
We offer swimming lessons to ages 4+ at various ability levels. Our focus is on water safety to help prevent drowning as well as beginning swimming techniques as used in a competitive swimming environment. This is a perfect transitional program to Pendleton Swim Club, our competitive team.
Competitive Teams
We have different teams depending on age group and ability level. Our teams participate from September through February in a 25 yard length pool (known as 'Short Course' / SCY), and from April through July in a 50 meter length pool (known as 'Long Course' / LCM). We accept swimmers ages 5 and up for our team that are independent in their swimming. We have 5 different groups:
Ponies
Focus is on having fun while learning proper mechanics for freestyle and backstroke and very beginning skills in breaststroke and fly.

To join us
Schedule a tryout
If you feel your child is qualified for the competitive swim team, we ask that your child join us for a scheduled try out. This allows the coaching staff to form a better seasonal plan for your child.
Tryout practice
We will have a scheduled practice for tryouts before season starts. If you are unable to make that tryout or are joining later in the season, you can schedule a tryout by contacting the coaching staff with the Contact button at the top of the site.
Register
Once your child has a tryout, you will be able to register on our Registration page.
To ensure the proper training and progress of our current swimmers, the coaching staff does reserve the right to limit registration during the 6 week periods prior to our short course and long course championship meets.
