About the Marlins
The Martinsburg Marlins Summer Swim Team has been a part of Berkeley County since Lambert Pool first opened in 1975. Each year, the team is run by a volunteer board of directors committed to providing a fun and encouraging environment to all young swimmers in the community.
The Marlins is a competitive travel team which trains daily at Lambert Pool to compete in the Mid-Atlantic Summer Swim League. The team is open to the first 125 boys and girls from ages 5-18 years old prior to June 1st of that swim season. High school graduates may participate the summer immediately following senior year if they have not attended collage full-time or participated on a collegiate team prior to June 1st of that season. To be considered for the competitive swim team, swimmers 5-8 years of age must independently swim 25 meters and swimmers 9-18 years of age must independently swim 50 meters. Assignment to skill-appropriate practice groups and ability to compete is at the discretion of the coaching staff.
