River Bend Stingrays
Join the Fun!
The River Bend Stingrays "work hard and play hard". Swimming embodies team spirit and still allows each swimmer to be recognized for their individual achievements. When our swimmers work hard they tone healthy bodies, prepare for swimming competition, and cross train for other sports.
Unlike any other sport, our youngest swimmers compete alongside our veteran swimmers. River Bend Golf and Country Club is lucky enough to have many talented swimmers in all age groups. The skills of the swimmers will vary between new team members who will swim the length of the pool for the first time and some very talented kids who swim year 'round. When they play, they enjoy goofing around with new and old friends, silly relays, and fun social events like our pep rallies, DCCL Day at King's Dominion, Annual SPLASH Party, Swim Team Banquet and MUCH MORE!
The Stingrays, led by Head Coach Mat Campet and Assistant Head Coach Cindy Weir, are currently the defending champions of the Blue Division of the Dominion Country Club League (DCCL) in which we compete. We are also the Blue Division defending champions of the DCCL Relay Carnival. We look forward to many more successes in 2012 and beyond.
