2024 Summer Swim Team Information + Interest Form
2 Great Programs... Right Around The Corner
Welcome to the 2024 Orange County Summer Swim League season. This year we will be offering two amazing summer swim teams in San Juan Capistrano. Our Marbella Manta Rays program will run out of Marbella Country Club, and our SOCA Stingrays program will run out of JSerra Catholic High School.
Both swim teams will be part of our novice Summer Swim Program and will compete against other local swim teams. In this 8-week program, swimmers between the ages of 5-18 will be instructed on proper techniques for each of the four strokes, as well as racing starts, turns and finishes. New swimmers will learn the basics in a fun and healthy environment and older swimmers will build on their foundation of prior experience with interval training, drills, and competitive race strategies.

Please note, for our upcoming 2024 summer swim season, our Manta Rays program will be open to Marbella Country Club Members ONLY.

Priority will be given to the families that sign up first in the event we have additional spots available.
