We will know more about a schedule for High School Aged Swimmers from coach Brett in the upcoming weeks.
*The above guidelines are approximate. Practice times are based on ability and demand.
More practice can be added once registration is completed. Coaches may use their discretion to adjust practice times as needed for each individual swimmer. For example, a younger more advanced swimmer may be ready to practice the full duration of the practice and a new swimmer may practice for a shorter timeframe. Ages 10 and under practices will focus more on stroke technique and stroke development from coaches, HS swimmers, and guest clinicians. A great way for beginners to learn and love competitive swimming!!
