Welcome to the Hawthorne Stingrays!
The Stingrays are part of the Tarheel Swimming Association (TSA) and all neighborhood children and grandchildren ages 4 - 18 are eligible, no matter their skill level.
If you are new to the neighborhood or have never considered joining in the past we encourage you to join the team this summer. It’s a great opportunity for parents and kids alike to meet new friends, get involved in the neighborhood and most importantly, get the kids in the water and learning to swim. We also have several exciting social events planned throughout the season.
If you are unsure if this is right for your child, we offer a free one week trial period during the first week of practice for them to try it out.
Practices will start on May 18th and are held Monday - Friday evenings from 6:00 PM - 6:30 PM for 6 and unders and 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM for ages 7 - 18. We also offer Saturday morning practices for 7 - 18 year olds from 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM.
Team Updates.
We want to thank Coaches Lance and Grace for a fantastic season last year and wish them the best as they begin their post-graduation careers. This year, we’re excited to welcome back Coach Jack, along with new coaches Aaron Davidson and Max Carlsen.
Aaron and Max are freshmen at NC State and members of the NC State swim team. Gianna is a longtime Hawthorne resident and former Stingray who many of you already know and love. Together, this coaching staff brings energy, expertise, and enthusiasm to help swimmers of all levels grow and succeed.
Be sure to follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/hawthorne.stingrays) and check your email for registration details coming soon.
Remember kids of all abilities 18 and under are welcome.
See you all at the pool!
