About the Wellington Dolphins
The Wellington
Dolphins Swim Team is a not-for-profit 501(3)(c) organization
operating as a Summer Recreation Swim team in Manassas,
Virginia. Our purpose is to provide opportunities for swimmers
18 years and under residing in the City of Manassas, Manassas Park,
Prince William and adjacent areas to participate in a competitive
swim program. We can accept swimmers who do not live in the
Wellington Community.
We offer
several programs, our Off-Season practice sessions (Fall, Winter,
Spring) to prepare our swimmers for Summer Competition, the Summer
Competitive Team, and our Mini Dolphins program which provides our
youngest swimmers who may not be ready to compete an opportunity to
get their feet wet.
Our Coaching
Staff is of the highest quality, many having USA/ASCA, and Life
Guard Certifications as well as Pool Operator licenses issued
by the PWCO Health Department. Most importanly, they love to
work with kids, and are passionate about
swimming.
Practices begin
the first Tuesday after Memorial Day in the evenings until the
Manassas City schools release. Once school is out, we offer
practice times in the mornings and the evenings. Our Practice
Schedule can be found
HERE.
Our competition
starts with a Time Trial meet, typically the second Saturday in
June. From there, every Saturday we compete in six regular
Dual-Meets; three at our home pool, and three at another pool in
the Manassas/Prince William County area. The season ends with
a Divisonal Championship meet the last Saturday in July. Every
swimmer on our team who is able to swim 25 meters unassisted is
given the opportunity to compete!
The Wellintgon
Dolphins are a member of the Prince William Swim League, which is
sanctioned by the Virginia Association of the Amateur Athletic
Union (VAAU).
