In our year-round competitive swimming program, children are placed in one of five swimming classifications – Stingray, Dolphin, Barracuda, Marlin, and Shark. Placement is based on ability. Practice times vary from group to group but most groups practice a minimum of three times per week. Our more advanced swimmers practice more often. Team members are encouraged to attend 80 percent of all practices, to ensure maximum benefit.We also have pre-compettive, diving, water aerobics, swim lessons, lifeguarding and more things aquaticsMission...
