Please visit this site often and let others know about it. The goal of this web site is to support the Marlins and Future Marlins and to celebrate their progress and accomplishments. Through this site, we will try to provide you with timely information, maps, and photos about our team activities and meets. We encourage and welcome publishing materials and suggestions from all Marlin swimmers and their parents. If you have photographs you think others would enjoy, email them to the webmaster: pfaden@gmail.com.

Come Swim With Us!

Children through age 18 are invited to join The McLean Marlins. The team enjoys a full program of activities, with practices, meets, and special events. All swimmers must be able to swim at least one length of the pool unassisted. Official meets are held Saturday mornings, and developmental meets are held Monday evenings. Swimmers are eligible to participate, commensurate with the current NVSL rules and regulations.

Events are set up according to stroke and age group. Participation in Saturday meets is determined by the coaches and is based on ability. All are encouraged to swim in Monday meets.

Future Marlins

We are pleased to continue the Future Marlins training for children ages 6 to 14 who can swim 15 meters of the pool unassisted. Children must be tested in order to qualify for this group. Focus will be on proper breathing, stroke technique, and building endurance. Future Marlins may transfer to the Swim Team and participate in Swim Team functions only after they are legal in two strokes and can swim an entire length of the pool.
