Fall 2026 Season Starts Wednesday, August 5th @ Wasilla Pool. Scroll on for more information! 🏊
Wasilla High School Swimming and Diving Team is a program that strives to serve the good of the team and each individual. No athlete is above any other, all student-athletes are expected to work hard, show discipline, demonstrate dependability, and embody teamwork. The program is designed to encourage and support all swimmers and divers regardless of ability to reach their swimming and/or diving goals, develop character, exhibit the highest sportsmanship, and to build leaders in and out of the pool.
General Season Info:
