South Run Narwhals

Founded in 2021, the Narwhals are the home team of South Run Rec Center in Springfield, Virginia. It is a developmental team, focused on providing a clear path for swimmers of all skill levels to improve their swimming abilities in an environment that helps them develop alongside other swimmers. This takes the form of practices that aim to combine both technical work with cardio/strengthening workouts to provide swimmers with individual growth that can greatly increase the level at which they can swim.

One of the highest priorities of this team is not only the technical side of swimming, but the community that comes with it. We take great pride in fostering a strong sense of sportsmanship, interpersonal connections, and a love of swimming in each of our swimmers that they can take forward into all aspects of life.
