About FLST Last update 1/6/2012 8:04 AM

The mission of FLST is to provide a fun, team oriented summer activity. FLST is a competitive swim team whose goals are to develop a healthy competitive spirit, instill self-discipline, sportsmanship, team goals, spirit and friendship among the swim team members, and introduce swimmers to the year round sport of swimming.

Afterschool practices begin in late May and morning practices, every weekday, start when Albemarle County public school ends. Most swim team events are held at the South pool. We have six swim meets with other local teams in the JSL (on Wednesday evenings) and our season ends in late July, with the JSL Championships at UVA.

The Forest Lakes Hurricanes Swim Team is a non-profit corporation whose purpose is to operate the Forest Lake Hurricanes Swim Team in Albemarle County, Virginia. FLST is a member of the Jefferson Swim League (JSL).

Members who meet the eligibility requirements of the JSL shall be eligible for membership in FLST upon completion of the FLST Registration Application, payment of fees set by the FLST Executive Board, and each swimmer and parent agree to comply with and be subject to all applicable obligations.

Additional membership requirements and obligations are detailed in the FLST bylaws and handbook. Please email with specific questions or to review specific sections of the bylaws.
