1. Who are the Willoughby Waves?
The Willoughby Waves are a separate entity from the Willoughby Home Owners Association and is financially supported by the swim fees collected.
The Willoughby Waves swim team is a member of the Nashville Swim League. We are celebrating our 13th season and constantly have 80 - 100 swimmers per summer. Each year many of our swimmers return to the Willoughby Waves Swim Team for the summer season. In addition we have new swimmers from the neighborhood join the team each year. We feel it is not only important for our children to become stronger swimmers but also have a good time. The neighborhood swim team develops teamwork skills, and a builds a sense of community, not only for our swimmers, but also for their parents. With the support of our sponsors we have been able to provide every swimmer a Team T-shirt. This year we are also hoping to provide Team Swim Caps in addition.
2. What is the Willoughby Waves Season?
The team’s season is generally June through July. There are 4 swim meets each season. There are two Home Meets and two Away Meets, along with a City Meet competition July 23-24, 2011 at Nashville Aquatics Center. We have practice available for the swimmers 4 nights a week.
