Our pools are currently closed but we hope to restart programming in June.

If you paid for the spring season, you should have received an email about your options.

We are committed to ensuring a safe, healthy, and positive environment for our swimmers, coaches, parents, and volunteers.

During this downtime, you -- swimmers and parents -- can help us formalize this commitment and earn recognition from USA Swimming as a Safe Sport Recognized Club. How? By completing a free, web-based training session.

In order for the Flying Fish to receive Safe Sport recognition, we need 15 percent of parents and 15 percent of swimmers (age 12-over) to complete this training.

Our LSC is Illinois Swimming and our club name is YWFF. Parents, if you are not a member of USA Swimming (most of you aren't) you will need to create a free account. Note: The athlete training course takes about 25 minutes and the parent course is slightly longer.

New: As another option, athletes and parents can now attend Zoom meetings conducted by USA Swimming to complete this training. See the links below.

Parents : Every Wednesday 3:00‐4:00pm EST

Our Red Cross lifesaving classes for swimmers age 15-over have been postponed until further notice. We will give you updated information as it becomes available.

Parents: If you're interested in becoming an official, you can now become certified by Illinois Swimming though online training. If you're a current official and need to renew, you also can do this online. Learn more here.
