Swim Team
The West Hillandale Hammerheads is open to swim club members ages 5 to 18. The swim team focuses on creating a positive atmosphere where children can develop swimming skills, build confidence, and form friendships. We are a charter member of the Montgomery County Swim League (MCSL) and compete against other neighborhood pools.
Pup Team
The Hammerheads sponsor the “Pup Team,” a group for children three and older who are learning to swim. Pup-team swimmers participate in swim classes led by members of the swim team. They also get the opportunity to "race" in swim meets accompanied by an older swim team buddy.
