Locals heading to Synchronized Swimming Championships

San Dieguito Synchronized Swimming Team is a year-round program and new swimmers are always welcome. Training is comprehensive at all levels, with the goal of developing girls to become strong, skilled athletes that value dedication and teamwork, all while having fun.
