team this summer and look forward to a fun-filled, competitive
season.
The Travis Country
Sharks swim team is a summer recreation program open to children

Our coaching staff
is led by Head Coach Paul Cumings, now embarking on his seventh
season with the Sharks. Under his watch, the team has grown from
about 150 swimmers to more than 270.
Travis Country
Sharks, a non profit club, is run by its elected Board of
Directors, which meets each month. Please feel free

in Travis Country the opportunity to improve swimming
skills and overall fitness in a fun-filled yet competitive summer
swim league in the comfort, beauty and convenience of our own

Country--more than 30 years--has enhanced community spirit as we
work alongside our fellow neighbors and friends encouraging good
sportsmanship in our children and those of neighboring
communities.
