Fun Team Fact? We do a monthly team social where we all get together outside of the pool which has created a situation where all of our members are not only friends at practice, but they are friends outside of the pool as well. As more people join, they just become part of the family. This atmosphere has really made for a fun and when necessary, competitive, practice environment. It’s a powerful thing when people are working hard for something more than just themselves.
