2023 Summer Break Rookie Camps

Bridge the gap between swim lessons and swim team! In this camp kids will learn the basics of competitive stroke technique for butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle. We will teach racing starts and turns. Participants will learn in a positive atmosphere and have the chance to experience a team setting from hard sets to game time. Above all else, you learn how much fun you have on a swim team!

This is for swimmers who have passed at least level 4 and are interested in seeing what swim team would be like. Camps are pool time only.
