About Us
The Lakes on Eldridge Swim Team (LOEST) is a non-profit organization that fields and supports a competitive summer league swim team. Our foremost goal is to provide opportunities for growth, training, enjoyment, good sportsmanship and active participation for all swim team members and their families.
The team is managed and operated by parent volunteers. We hire experienced coaches to conduct group practices that focus on water safety, improving swimming strokes and providing competitive swim training.
LOEST was formed in 2000 by Lakes on Eldridge resident Mary Beth Taylor.
The Lakes on Eldridge Swim Team (LOEST) is a member of the Northwest Aquatic League (NWAL). The NWAL sanctions competitive youth swimming throughout the Houston area and is one of the largest swimming organizations in the United States. The league is divided by competitive potential into five or six-team divisions. Each team swims against the other teams in the division in a series of dual meets. At the end of the season, the teams compete in a divisional meet to decide the division champion.
