The Prince William Swim Club, "Amberjax", which in
2008 celebrates 37 years of competitive swimming excellence in Prince William County, is a family oriented competitive swim team offering programs tailored to the ages, skills, and competitive interests of children 5-18+. The Amberjax family focuses on achievement in swimming as an aspect of well-rounded development. The team stresses achievement in school and encourages team members of all ages to participate in other sports and recreational activities. The Amberjax staff notes with pride our Amberjax swimmers have gone on to receive scholarships and swim competitively at the University of Virginia, Old Dominion University, North Carolina State,
Bucknell, Temple, East Carolina University, Slippery Rock, Mary Washington College, Savannah College of Arts and Design and Howard University to name a few. Amberjax Alumni often come back home from college in the summer to coach Prince William County summer league teams such as Lake Ridge Lancers, Dale City Frogs, Westridge and Veterans Park. The Amberjax are different from other teams in the area because we choose to remain smaller than most. We prefer the small family atmosphere where we know each swimmer by name. We have a smaller coach to swimmer ratio which results in more individualized attention for your swimmer. Amberjax practice at Dale City Rec Center, Chinn Aquatics Center and Veterans park (Long Course season).
