Lake Monsters was the first sport that I truly enjoyed and easily stuck with. It's an environment where I could consistently improve as a swimmer and a person, and a place I could go to through all my ups and downs.


August "Gus" Hertz, 8-year Lake Monsters Swimmer

Did you know Mission Valley Aquatics has its own club swim team?

Serving the Mission Valley, the Lake Monsters is a competitive youth swim team that is open to any skill level. Our swimmers regularly practice, compete against other teams across the state, and volunteer within our community. 

Why should my kid join the Lake Monsters?

Our team provides a fun environment for kids to learn lifelong swimming skills, grow their confidence, and become a part of a team while staying healthy. As the local school bus drops students off at Mission Valley Aquatics, our swimmers have a safe environment to go to every day after school. 

How does it work?

Practices run every day after school from 4 to 6. Swimmers are split into instructional groups based on their age and skill level and then are given personalized coaching and workouts, both in and out of the water.  About every other weekend, swimmers will have the option to travel around Montana to compete and race against other swim teams. 

When does the season start?

Our team operates year-round, but competition is split into two separate seasons. The short course (racing in a 25-yard pool) season starts in September and will run until early March. Then, in March, the long course (racing in a 50-yard pool) begins and runs until July. More specific dates can be found on our Team Unify site.
