About Our Team

Our Mission

The Digby Dolphins are a youth competitive swim team based in Digby, Nova Scotia. Our team gives young swimmers a place to develop their strokes, learn to race, challenge themselves, and be part of a team.

Founded in 2024, we compete in Nova Scotia’s summer swimming program, with swimmers ranging from newer athletes learning competitive swimming to experienced swimmers working toward personal bests and provincial competition. Our focus is good coaching, consistent practice, steady improvement, and making sure competitive swimming is fun & cool.
