These exceptional young athletes went undefeated this season in both the 100-yard freestyle and 100-yard medley relays. They earned first-place finishes in both relays at the prestigious Patti Wilder County Meet and also represented Vinings Estates at the Georgia Games, where their stellar performance earned them an invitation to the 2026 State Games of America at Penn State University. Their signature bright pink swim caps have become a symbol of excellence, pride, and unity. While they swim to win, the Pink Caps also swim to inspire more young black girls to take up the sport and to prove that confidence, teamwork, and commitment can lead to greatness at any age. The Vinings Estates Dolphins is a competitive summer swim team serving families in the Smyrna area. The team promotes a culture of sportsmanship, fun, and skill development for swimmers ages 5-18.
