Competitive Sports

Tennis

At Lighthouse Point Yacht Club, tennis is more than a game—it's a vibrant and celebrated part of our community. Our competitive program continues to earn top accolades, with our Broward 4.0+ women’s league proudly finishing as the #1 team in Broward County for the 2024 season. In 2025, our newly formed Broward 4.3+ team followed suit, also taking the #1 spot. Across all six of our league teams, we’ve consistently ranked among the best, with steady improvements each season driven by the dedication of our players and the expert guidance of our coaching staff. In addition to adult competitive programs, our LHPYC coaching staff brings decades of experience in developing rising star athletes and helping them sharpen their tennis skills to reach their full potential.

This success is no coincidence. Under the leadership of Director of Tennis Jim Scott—an award-winning coach and nationally recognized tennis professional—our program thrives with structured league training, private instruction, and daily clinics available for all skill levels. Jim brings decades of experience from top-tier clubs across the country and has coached multiple USTA champions, led national teams, and earned distinctions such as PTR North Carolina Member of the Year and USTA/Mid-Atlantic Teaching Professional of the Year. His passion for the sport and proven track record have elevated the standard of tennis at LHPYC, turning our program into a model of excellence in South Florida.

Whether you're looking to compete, improve your skills, or join a welcoming tennis community, LHPYC offers year-round opportunities and a legacy of success on and off the court.

Swim

We are proud to host a USA Swimming–certified year-round competitive swim team led by Head Coach and Aquatics Director, Olga Yasianovich. With a mission rooted in elite training, athlete development, and strong team values, our program is designed to nurture swimmers of all levels—from rising talent to championship contenders. LHPYC Aquatics emphasizes technique, discipline, and a growth mindset, offering structured training in all four strokes, starts, turns, and racing strategies.

Coach Yasianovich brings a wealth of international experience to our program. Originally from Belarus, she competed at the national level before transitioning into coaching. From 2017 to 2022, she served as assistant coach at the renowned Energy Standard Swimming Club —home to several Olympic athletes and two-time International Swimming League champions. She attended the Tokyo Olympics with her pupil as an internationally recognized swim coach. With world-class coaching, a supportive environment, and top-tier facilities, Lighthouse Point Yacht Club’s swim team is poised to become one of South Florida’s premier aquatics programs. Whether your child is new to competition or aiming for the podium, their journey to excellence begins right here at LHPYC.

Rowing (Coming Soon)

Rowing is one of the fastest-growing sports in South Florida, with over a dozen youth and collegiate programs already thriving from Miami to Palm Beach. Programs like Miami Rowing Club and Pine Crest have seen student-athletes recruited to top universities, including Ivy League schools and nationally ranked institutions, thanks to the discipline, athleticism, and academic drive the sport fosters.

Lighthouse Point Yacht Club is uniquely positioned to be a part of this movement. With access to wide canal waterways and a designated slow-speed zone along the Intracoastal, our location offers ideal training conditions for rowers of all levels.

As we complete our redevelopment, we are proud to share our vision of building a dedicated rowing shed and an indoor rowing training center integrated into our new state-of-the-art fitness facility. This program has the potential to bring regional prestige, youth opportunity, and collegiate pathways to our community. We are currently seeking passionate sponsors and partners to help bring this vision to life.

Athletic Training

At Lighthouse Point Yacht Club, our fitness department is led by longtime Fitness Director Jeremy Martens and supported by a passionate team of trainers dedicated to helping members of all ages thrive.

Jeremy, a former Division 1 lacrosse player, has spent the past eight years training hundreds of members—from age 6 to 93. His signature approach blends strength training with high-intensity intervals, delivering efficient and effective results in just 30–60 minutes.

Our team is especially proud to support young athletes, focusing on proper form, body awareness, and sport-specific training. We believe in building a strong foundation first—teaching safe, full-range movement before increasing intensity for long-term progress and injury prevention.

Adult athletes are just as much a part of the action. With so many members enjoying tennis, pickleball, kickball, and softball, our trainers also emphasize stretching, mobility, and recovery to keep you moving at your best.

Whether you’re looking to improve your performance, build strength, or feel better in your body, our experienced fitness staff is here to support your journey. Reach out to schedule a consultation—we’ll help you find your best path forward.
