The Blue Waves Swim Team is the West Suburban YMCA's competitive swim team for children and teens ages 6-17. We welcome swimmers of all levels - from the novice swimmer to the national caliber athlete - and our team embodies the YMCA's core values of honesty, caring, respect and responsibility. Blue Waves participates in a fall/winter short course season and a spring/summer long course season.
