Welcome to Breakers

Welcome to the Ridgewood YMCA Breakers Swim Team! We're so glad your family found us. Breakers is a year-round competitive swim team based in Ridgewood, NJ. Our mission is to develop swimmers of all levels — from first-time competitors to elite athletes — in an environment that values hard work, good sportsmanship, and fun.

When you join Breakers, you're joining more than just a swim team. You're joining a community of coaches, parents, and athletes who support each other through every race.

Here's what to expect in your first few weeks:

• Your coach will introduce themselves and explain the group's goals
• You'll receive the practice schedule and any important dates
• You'll be added to the team communication system
• You'll get a chance to ask questions at our new-family orientation

Don't hesitate to reach out to any coach or parent volunteer if you have questions. We're all here to help.
