The mission of the Sanford Squids is to provide swimmers with the
opportunity to develop and perfect their swimming skills in a fun
and supportive environment, while learning the values of teamwork
and dedication.
Our Business
The Sanford Squids initially was born out of a love for swimming in
the Sanford community in the 1980’s. The Squids later
merged with the YMCA of the Triangle, making up a valuable part of
the YOTA team. In April of 2008, the YMCA chose to move in a
direction away from competitive swimming and instruction, and the
Squids were reborn!
The transition to independent
operation has been a very good one for the Squids. We have
grown to nearly forty swimmers, and established ourselves as one of
the up-and-coming teams in the region.
With the coming of summer, the
Squids will be forming the Sanford Summer Swimming League to expand
the reach of swimming into the community. We are currently
negotiating with several different teams and pools to create a fun,
and educatinal summer swimming program.
Greg Huff has undertaken the
daily operation of the Sanford Squids, and is hoping to return the
Squids to their former position as a leader in the local youth
sports community.
