Welcome to the Razorback Aquatic
Club AquaHawgs! If you are interested in swimming, you have
come to the right place. The AquaHawgs are one of the top swim
programs in the state of Arkansas. We provide opportunities
for swimmers of all levels and abilities, from those with no
swimming experience to swimmers who are ready to compete at the
national level.
Competitive Program
The RAC AquaHawgs competitive team
is one of the premier teams in the Midwest. Designated a 2009
USA Swimming Bronze Medal Team, we placed second in the Arkansas
State Championship meet and seventh in the 5-state Sectional
Championship meet. We also had several swimmers compete in
National meets across the country. To join the competitive
team, swimmers should be able to complete 50 yards of both
freestyle and backstroke as well as 25 yards of breaststroke and
butterfly. Knowledge of flip turns and racing dives is also
preferred. To try out for the RAC AquaHawgs competitive team,
please attend one of our upcoming tryout dates:

These tryouts will take place at

listed above don’t fit your schedule, tryouts are also
available by appointment. To arrange for a tryout in
Springdale, please contact Coach Carolyn at jaycar13@gmail.com. For tryouts in
Rogers, please contact Coach Leanne at lean_jac@yahoo.com or Coach Lisa at greg_richards@sbcglobal.net.
Swim School Program
For those swimmers who
aren’t quite ready for the competitive side of our program,
the RAC AquaHawgs Swim School is the place for you. We offer
classes for swimmers ages 4 and up. These classes are geared
for a wide range of abilities, from swimmers who have never been in
the water before to our Pre-Team swimmers who are almost ready for
the competitive team. Our experienced staff will help your
swimmer advance his or her swimming skills in a positive
environment and, as with our competitive program, developing the
fundamentals of proper technique is at the core of our
teaching. For more information about the RAC AquaHawgs Swim
School, please click on the “Swim School” tab of our
website or contact our Swim School Director, Amy Stechmann, at amy.stechmann@gmail.com.
