The Manhattan Marlins Swim
Team was founded almost forty years ago by a group of interested
parents. Their goal to promote swimming as a sport, both as
fun and competition, is still in place today. Our primary
emphasis is on positive self image, physical conditioning, and
development to each child’s fullest potential.
Over the years, the Marlins
have grown, developed and produced national qualifiers as well as
state high school champions. Most of all, the team has
provided an excellent swimming program to the Manhattan, Kansas
area and to each swimmer who has become a member.
School Sponsored
Sports
Families of swimmers participating in school-sponsored sports
programs can receive special consideration of their swim team fee
assessment. However, the circumstances of participation need to be
discussed with the Head Coach to find a suitable fee
structure.
High School Swimmer
Participation
Swimmers wanting to swim
with the Manhattan Marlins swim team before their high school
season begins will be allowed to enroll in the program at the
beginning of the swimming quarter. As with all swimmers, lane
placement will be determined by the head coach, based on swimming
ability.
Scholarship
Program
The Manhattan Marlins swim team provides a scholarship program to
families in need. These families may complete the scholarship
application form and submit it to the Board of Directors for
approval. Scholarships can be renewed on an annual basis following
re-application by the participant.
