History of Lakeland Hills YMCA Competitive Swimmimg
Lakeland Hills opened its doors on Fanny Road in 1971 with a six lane pool, locker rooms and a few offices. Since then the Y and the team have grown considerably. With a continuous line of quality coaches, the team has established a history of excellence throughout the Middle Atlantic Region of the United States. The Y has a winning tradition in the State Meet and the East Field Regional Meet; second to none. Lakeland Hills has produced many outstanding athletes, including Olympic Trial qualifiers and four individual Y National Champions. Our swimmers not only excel in the pool, but also in the classroom. Swimmers’ success at LHY and academic prowess has helped make it possible for them to be accepted into many distinguished schools. Our commitment is to excellence, not only in the pool, but also in life.
