About Us

Elkins Otters is a recreational swimming team based out of Davis and Elkins College. Our goal is to provide local youth an opportunity to enjoy the sport of swimming and the environment of both individual and team sport. The benefits of youth swimming are many:

Swimming promotes fitness and teaches a child to strive for physical achievement ·       
Swimming is a healthy lifetime activity ·       
Swimming teaches life lessons of competition and sportsmanship ·       
Swimming motivates participants to strive for self improvement and teaches goal orientation ·       
Swimming is an exciting individual AND team sport ·       
Swimming cultivates a positive mental attitude and high self-esteem

We are part of the North Central West Virginia Summer Swim League and participate in meets from Morgantown to Buckhannon from June through July.
