The Devon Crest Swim Team (DCST) is a summer age-group team in the Mid-Penn Swim League. Swimmers, ages 5-18, participate in dual meets, optional invitational meets, as well as Divisional Championship, All-Star, and Mid-Cap Championship meets.

The mission of Devon Crest Swim Team is to provide a structured and fun environment which fosters the competitive spirit of team members, and helps members to improve their swimming technique, physical fitness, and self-esteem, as well as develop a sense of team unity.

In addition to our dual meets, the team hosts the Devon Crest Novice Meet. This is our annual swim meet for 1st time swimmers or summer-only swimmers.

A summer season on our team includes Drag Day, Pancake Fridays, the Swim-a-thon, Coach's Bon Fire, movie with the coaches, and an Evening at Devon – just to name a few.

Join us for a summer that's competitive and fun. Go Gators!
