General Information

The Boynton Beach Blazers Swim Team is a recreational team that consists of swimmers ages 4 - 17.  The team practices 4 days a week and competes in swim meets at least once a month.  The Blazers are a part of the South Florida Recreational Swim League along with 15 other teams located between Vero Beach and North Miami. Swim competitions and parent involvement are an important part of the viability and pride of the Blazers Swim Team. Children should be prepared to attend swim meets and parents are needed to volunteer.

Tryouts
Tryouts are held at Denson Pool on a walk-in basis during general admission hours. The participant must be able to swim 25 yards on top of the water.  Once swimmers have succeeded with the swim test, they can either register immediately. Practice schedule flexibility is permitted with advance notice to the coaches.
