Our Mission

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide every member — regardless of ability — with the opportunity to grow both socially and athletically, without feeling lost or left behind.

Coaching

All of our coaches are certified members of USA Swimming and have access to the most comprehensive training and certification program for youth swimming coaches in the United States. We offer professional coaching for swimmers at all levels, from Novice to National, covering ages roughly 4 to 18 and a wide range of abilities.


Our team proudly supports a diverse group of athletes, from Olympic Trials qualifiers to beginners focusing on basic skill development.

We also welcome prospective swimmers to experience our program through free trial days. When a training group reaches capacity, free assessment days may be paused, and a waiting list will be started. We maintain separate waiting lists of up to 70 members for both the development levels and the Pre-Senior to National levels.


Swimmers entering our first level of the team must be able to safely swim 25 yards and must pass the facility swim test.
