Welcome to the Penguins Team Website!

PHAST is a summer recreational swim team program where young swimmers improve their skills, learn sportsmanship as they compete against other swimmers, and have fun-filled, enjoyable summers. Swimmers participate in weekly competitive dual meets and have the opportunity to swim at a variety of Invitational Meets. PHAST also participates in the annual Diablo Community Swim League Championship Meet. These swim meets promote integrity and high ethical standards for all participating athletes, coaches, and parents, and ensure fairness through rules and regulations. The goal of PHAST is to use the sports experience to help our swimmers develop positive character traits and values that will help them succeed in all future endeavors.

  • Technique in all four strokes, starts, and turns will be practiced.
  • The clinic is not a learn-to-swim program and we will not have coaches in the water to assist.
