Train Hard. Swim Fast. Be a Gator.
The YDSC Gators are more than a swim team. We are a community of athletes, coaches, and families committed to building strong swimmers, confident competitors, and lifelong teammates.
Whether your swimmer is ready to compete for the first time or wants to take their performance to the next level, the Gators provide the coaching, structure, and encouragement they need to grow.
Who Can Join?
To join, swimmers must be able to complete 25 yards of freestyle and backstroke unassisted. All new swimmers must schedule an assessment before registering.
Interested? Contact Head Coach Jason Burrow at jason.burrow@decaturymca.org to schedule your swimmer’s evaluation and get started.

Train With Purpose
Every practice is designed to help swimmers improve.
Gators athletes work on:
- Stroke technique and efficiency
- Starts, turns, and finishes
- Speed and endurance
- Race strategy
- Goal setting
- Sportsmanship and teamwork
- Confidence under pressure
Our coaches challenge swimmers to work hard while creating an environment where athletes feel supported, encouraged, and proud of their progress.
