Meet Coach Mya, who’s joining our coaching team this season as an athlete support coach.

Mya has been swimming for 17 years, and 12 of those were spent with the Dolphins. For the past five years, she swam with the UNB varsity swim team while completing her degree in chemical engineering.

Now she’s back on deck with the club that means so much to her, and ready to give back to the next group of Dolphins.

It’s so great to have Mya backhome with the Dolphins!

Ice cream after workout is always a good idea, and even better for a birthday. A few of our swimmers stopped in at Holman’s to celebrate and found our team picture sitting by the cash register. Seeing it on the counter made our day. Thank you, Holman’s, for supporting our swimmers!

It rolled over again. Ticket #16398 wasn’t played, so next Thursday’s SYSPEI Gold Rush pot is expected to go over $155,000. That’s over $77,500 for the winner.

Thank you to everyone who has been playing for the Dolphins. Your support is adding up, and every new player who chooses our club makes a real difference for our swimmers.

Please share this post and tag anyone who’d like a shot at $77,500. The more people who play, the bigger the pot gets and the more support goes to our club.

It’s $5 for three chances to win, and a portion of every ticket bought in support of the Dolphins comes directly back to our club. Scan the QR code to go straight to our page, or visit https://syspei.goldrush.causable.io and select Summerside Dolphin Swim Club when you sign up.

The draw is Thursday, October 29 at 1 pm. Players must be 19+ and on PEI to play and win.

Max swam with the Dolphins from 2017 to 2022, and this is his first year coaching. He also works as a lifeguard right here at our pool, so some families may already recognize him from the lifeguard chair.

Max knows how big those first steps in the water can feel, and he’s excited to help our newest swimmers build confidence, learn the basics, and have fun doing it.

It’s great to have Max back with the Dolphins!

Meet Willow, one of our Tater Tots coaches with the Summerside Junior Dolphins this season!

Willow has been a Dolphin for a long time. She started with Junior Dolphins when she was four years old and has been swimming competitively with the club ever since. This is her first year coaching, and our youngest swimmers are lucky to have someone on deck who started out exactly where they are now.

We are so excited to have Willow on deck with our Tater Tots this season!

Big thanks to Jason Simmonds and the Journal Pioneer for the great article on our club this season.

We started last fall with 53 swimmers and opened this season with over 100, and it’s been amazing to see the pool full of red T-shirts. To check out the full story, visit the Summerside section at saltwire DOT com SLASH prince-edward-island/ and look for “Summerside Dolphins back in the pool looking to make waves.”

Our first home meet of the season, the Spooky Spud, is coming up on Saturday, October 24 at Credit Union Place. This one is for our competitive SDSC swimmers.
