Then Maria switches hands with Pablo Sanchez and Ashley switches hands with Reese Worthington. Then Pablo switches hands with Luanne Lui and Reese switches hands with Sidney Webber. Then Luanne switches hands with Dante Robinson and Sidney switches hands with Mikey Thomas. Then Dante finishes first. Then Maria, Pablo, Luanne, and Dante celebrate their victory and give each other a high five, while the other backyard kids and the pro kids congratulate them. Then the Backyard Swimming logo appears.

 * Pickup Game - Players select a pool, choose from either Individual or Team, and pick a Backyard Kid or a Pro Kid.
 * Grand Prix - It's kinda like Season Mode or League Play, but swimming-themed. In the mode, you enter your name as a coach. Then, you can select a pool as your home stage, as well as select from either the individual swimming type or the team swimming type. Next, you look at schedules and compete in Tournaments, Playoffs, Contests, Cups, and Opens (like the Backyard Open and the Olympic Open). Also, players also participate in world rounds and preliminary matchups for big prizes.

 * (*) = An asterisk means that Battle Swim Race is like survival mode, but in Backyard Swimming fashion. Battle Swim Race (Individual) is a free-for-all match where the swimmer who survives with the most stamina wins. Battle Swim Race (Team) is where the team that swim and survives with the most stamina wins.
