Pre Competitive Programs
Our Pre-Competitive Program focuses on FUNdamentals and Learn to Train portions of the long-term athlete development model. The goal is to introduce children to physical activity in a fun and safe environment.
Swimmers start in FUNdamentals to learn proper stroke techniques before advancing to the 'Learn to Train' phase, fully preparing them for our competitive program.
