The last day to sign up for the Tidal Waves Swim Team at the Ahwatukee Community Swim and Tennis Center is Tuesday, May 31. The recreational swim team is for kids ages 6 to 18 who meet minimum swimming qualifications. Practices are Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons with swim meets on Saturday mornings. Children will be able to improve their swimming skills that will last a lifetime, make new friends, get out of the heat and into the pool, and enjoy friendly competition.
