At its core, swimming is all about having fun.
At Summer League Swimming, we’ve taken care of all of the ins and outs of running a team or league so you can focus on what’s important.
We want to help you provide a safer, fun environment so more children and adults can fall in love with the sport of swimming.
At many levels, swimming can be an intimidating sport to outsiders – high-stress, high-commitment, high-cost. When swimmers participate on your local summer swim team, it is the perfect introduction for families who want to get to know the sport before jumping all the way into the deep end.

What We Offer
SLS is the national organization dedicated to providing quality resources to summer swim teams and leagues throughout the United States.
In order to provide summer league teams with all of their needs, we offer a swimming-specific coach certification course, thorough background checks, and insurance through our Safer Summer Program.
Coach Certification
Great swimmers start with great coaches. Our Coach Certification Course helps coaches learn and grow in their craft so they can become great leaders.
The SLS coach certification course is tailored specifically to summer league swim coaches. While our course was created by the Positive Coaching Alliance, we added a splash of summer league by including the best practices used by the best summer league coaches and teams. Do you want more? Our course is hosted by Olympic swimmers! Isn’t that the best?!
Background Checks
Have confidence your swimmer is safer with us. We offer nothing less than advanced Level 2 Background checks for your peace of mind.
With over 1,200 background check companies in the United States, it can be overwhelming to know which company to trust. We have put in the effort to make it easy for you to offer quality, affordable background checks for everyone in your organization.
Insurance
Our comprehensive insurance program provides you with general liability and excess accident protection, sexual abuse and molestation coverage, as well as defense against any false claims.
As a seasonal sport with many volunteers, the risks involved with summer league swimming may not be apparent. That is why SLS has put together an insurance program that benefits not only swim league members and participants, but also coaches, volunteers, officials, and staff.
Swimming should be fun, swimming should be memorable, and swimmers should be safe.
When your coaches are Summer League Swimming Coach Certified and your organization gains background-checked leaders, you can rest easy knowing you have been provided top quality role models for your summer athletes.
Summer League Swimming is a perfect entry point to the sport for kids who still want to be kids. It’s a lower-pressure, less-demanding arena where young swimmers can experience all that the sport has to offer while still being able to participate in all the other joys of summer.
