Tiger Aquatics strives to develop
important skills for life in young swimmers. It is our goal to
produce confident leaders who have developed the skills of goal
setting, self responsibility, hard work ethic and time management.
Our swimmers are anyone and everyone who wants to become a member
of the team. Our youngest swimmers are five years old and have to
be able to make the length of the pool (25 yards) unassisted. Our
oldest swimmers are over 60 and are required to be able to jump in
the pool.
Our staff is dedicated to the pursuit and happiness of our members!
We are here to train all ages and all ability levels. The
dedication of the staff has been extremely evident in the rise of
the Tiger Aquatics team at a state level, regional level, national
level and international level.
Our team structure is set up for our younger swimmers to learn the
proper technique while having fun and learning about team dynamics.
Our first introduction into our team is our
PAWS group which swims 2 days a week from 6:00-6:45pm.
In this group our swimmers works on swimming all four strokes
legally (by USA Swimming rules, our governing body).
The
CUBS group is our next group up and in this group
technique and proper drill work is the heavy emphasis for the
athletes to grow into the future star swimmers! This group swims
from 5:00-6:00 five days a week (5 days a week is not
mandatory).
The
JUNIOR TIGERS is the group up from cubs, and at this
level, aerobic swimming is developed along with stroke technique,
clock management, dryland and team building exercises. This group
meets from 5:00-6:30pm.
The
TIGERS group is next which preps our athletes for the
Pre-Senior/Senior groups. This level is focused on maximizing the
athletes’ aerobic capacity, along with improved technique and
fundamentals. This group practices from 5:30-7:30pm.
The
PRE-SENIOR group is the level right below the Senior
group and this group of athletes is focused on increasing each
athletes swimming background. The aerobic level at this group
drastically changes due to the different background of each
swimmer. This group swims from 4:00-5:30pm.
Tiger Aquatics top level is the
SENIOR group which preps athletes to swim at a
Sectional, Junior Nationals, Senior National and Olympic Trial
level. This group swims from 4:00-6:30pm.
MASTERS is a group of people that have a life long
love for the sport, some are triathletes, some are older star
swimmers that swim to stay in shape and some are people that want
to get back into shape. This group is not just for people that have
been swimming their entire life but for people that want to give
swimming a try.
