Programs

The City of Mobile Swim Association offers training and practice groups for swimmers of all ages and ability levels. We work to offer age specific training for all of our athletes geared towards challenging each individual and developing each individual to the best of THEIR abilities. We believe in a building a program from the novice level, and try to make swimming not only a sporting choice but a fun, healthy lifelong activity.

The City of Mobile Swim Association is a competitve USA swim team. We offer swim programs ranging from novice to masters.

MISSION
The mission of CMSA is to provide a competitive swimming atmosphere in the
Mobile area that services a broad range of ambitions.  We offer a program that welcomess all abilities and encourages each individual to achieve his/her maximum potential as athletes and citizens.  We want swimmers and parents to expect CMSA to provide an environment where excellence is expected and pursuit of potential is the group goal.

PHILOSOPHY
The philosophy of all CMSA staff members is directed toward the long-term development of each athlete.  Competitive swimming is not a sport in which short-term gains are the primary reward.  We at CMSA hope to develop each young athlete’s potential through their entire grade school careers with the hope that they continue swimming in college and well into adult life.
