BEAR Swimming

BEAR Swimming is a year-round program sanctioned by USA Swimming.

The program’s purpose is to promote swimming as a life sport, while offering opportunities which encourage the recreational beginning swimmer and challenge the serious competitive athlete. The team provides sound swimming technique, self-motivation and personal development with a focus on long term enjoyment of swimming and fitness. Competition is a way to develop individual skill, confidence and to build team spirit.

BEAR Swimming’s experienced coaching staff will bring the most out of your children.

Bear Swimming Torch Team
Torch Team is recognition for swimmers who register ’legal’ (non-DQ) times for every event in their age groups. At our May awards dinner, Torch Team members will receive a special towel to recognize their achievement. Keep track of your events to qualify for Torch Team. On the website we will have a regular listing of BEAR Torch Team members!   
 

Talk to your group coach if you have questions about your status for Torch Team eligibility. For swimmers who ’age up’ in the middle of the season (thus creating additional required criteria for events) appropriate adjustments will be made. We want everyone in the water frequently, to gain valuable experience in all four strokes and in IM’s.
