2024 Rapids Swim Team Updates
Please see the Rapids Swim Team Page for updates!
Enrollment is ongoing for club members, 18 and under, who can comfortably and safely swim a single lap. We offer a developmental team for younger, developing swimmers, the Mini Rapids. The coaching staff will help the youngest swimmers with the basics of stroke technique while building confidence for future competition.
NVSL youth swim teams have produced at least 7 Olympic swimmers. The first was Melissa Belote, a three-time gold medalist at the 1972 Olympics at the age of 15. Great Falls Swim Team has our own US Olympic Swimmer in Kate Zeigler, who swam for the Great Falls Rapids kids' swim team, setting many still unbroken NVSL records.
Great Falls Swim & Tennis Club is proud of our long-standing association with the NVSL and for being the only NVSL pool in Great Falls. Our swim team is one of the most spirited, dynamic, and fun teams in the NVSL, and we believe our pool is one of the best in the league.
For more information, including practice times, meet schedule, registration, contact information, and a whole lot more, please see our Swim Team Page.
