Swim Team

The Orinda Park Pool Stingrays are a three-season recreational swim team that practices from spring to fall.

Our club proudly competes within the OMPA league. A valid OPP membership is required to join the team. Learn about the swim team here.

We are also the hosts of the best summer invitational meet around -- OPP Relays! This fast-paced, all-relay meet is in its 63rd year.  For more information go to OPPRELAYS.ORG.

We also offer a Swim Team Mini Stinger Program which is geared to progress young swimmers to advance to the Swim Team program. The Mini-Stinger program will start during our swim team summer season (late May / early June)

Mini-stingers (generally ages 4-7) should be able to move unassisted in the pool for 10 yards and put their head fully underwater 

To join the regular swim team for 6 & unders (or any age group), swimmers should be able to swim freestyle 25 yards with side breathing, without any assistance.

If you have registered for 6 & under but your swimmer does not qualify, please plan to join practices in June, and email swimteam@orindaparkpool.org to re-register as a mini-stinger. If you aren’t sure if your young swimmer qualifies for team, Coach Brad can help evaluate your swimmer to make that determination.
