Coaches & Directors

The Coaches main areas of responsibility lie within the realm of the pool itself. We try to provide a fun yet tough environment for all swimmers of all levels; with a focus on stroke mechanics and technique work for younger athletes, transitioning into a more rigorous aerobic and conditioning focus as the athletes progress through our team. We also handle meet registration, swimmer registration, and goal setting; if you have any questions about those areas, please do not hesitate to talk to us. All other questions regarding fees, policies, and other administrative questions may be directed to one of our esteemed board members.
