The JDSS Swim Team is designed for dedicated swimmers who already have experience in competitive or club swimming. Athletes build on their existing skills, such as strong strokes, flip turns, and confident starts from diving blocks, while representing the school at regional swim meets. The team operates with a high level of independence, as swimmers continue training primarily with their community swim clubs while competing together for the school. Team members demonstrate commitment, personal responsibility, and pride in representing their school in the pool.
Runs: December–February (approximately 3 meets total)
Sign Up: November
Where: Meets may take place in locations such as Fergus, Guelph, and Baden (CWOSSA).
