HISTORY
Sunrise Swimming began in 1998 as the
Sunrise Seahawk Swim Team . Coach Garry Nelson founded
the team after moving from Broward Community College. In
2001, Coach Dave Wathen became the Head Coach and renamed the team
Sunrise Swimming. Under his direction we produced several
nationally ranked age-groupers and a Top 10 finish at the Florida
Gold Coast Junior Olympics. In 2003, Coach Dave became the
National Team coach for the Plantation Swim Team (PST).
Sunrise Swimming became a satellite of PST at that
time.
