The Capitol Sea Devils

The Capitol Sea Devils is a non-profit corporation founded in 1967 by Ms. Jane Stafford, who at that time was a nationally recognized swim coach. Her goal was to provide swimming instruction and competition opportunities to swimmers of all ages and abilities. Over the intervening fifty (50) years, The Capitol Sea Devil (TCSD) swim team has grown to over 600 athletes. Our athletes have consistently proven themselves to be among the best in the nation, reaching the highest levels of age group, junior, and senior national competition. Many of our swimmers have gone on to outstanding swimming and academic careers in colleges and universities throughout the country. Starting Fall 2018, The Capitol Sea Devils offers competitive water polo programs complementing our aquatics offering in Washington DC region known as Potomac Sea Devils. Our Mission: To provide excellence in professional coaching and programs that help swimmers and water polo athletes achieve their maximum potential and strengthen their work ethic, self-esteem and respect for others. TCSD offers a series of graduated programs that provide quality instruction and training to all our swimmers and players. Our coaches focus attention on stroke mechanics, conditioning, and overall physical development. Competition affords the athletes a major, but not exclusive, measurement of their progress and development.
