Student Jobs

Moho Gators is a recreational summer swim team that fosters team camaraderie by providing kids 18 and under the opportunity to swim competitively and participate in nearby swim meets.

Our coaches seek to build swimmers confidence by encouraging them to move beyond their comfort zone and try new events. With this confidence, many of our Moho Gators try out for year around swim club leagues and compete at the high school level. 

MoHo Gators is a non-profit that is supported by the families of our swimmers. The Board consists of parent volunteers who dedicate at least 2 years service. We aim to keep our swim registration costs manageable through fundraising efforts and enlisting ALL parent/guardian volunteers to run each of our home meets

The hours will vary based on the number of coaching staff.  The first two weeks will be flexible.  Practices typically start after school the last two weeks of the school year.  From Mid-June to the end of July the hours typically run from 5am-10a (Monday-Friday).  Swim meets occur on Saturday mornings from 7a-12p.  Some evening hours may be needed.
