Our recreational swim team will offer practice year-round at our indoor facility. We will have in-house swim meets throughout the year where the swimmers will be able to race one another and most importantly, try to better their own times. Our experienced coaches will help each swimmer improve their technique and endurance while developing a love for swim! Coaches will work on concepts such as; dedication, goal setting, teamwork, responsibility, and respect.

 

Swimmers will be placed into practice groups based off of their age, skill level and development level.
