Swim team and clinic programs are hosted at select branches:
Swim team is open to youth ages 5–18 who can swim one length of the pool independently. Teams are organized by age and ability level.
An evaluation may be required to determine group placement, but all skill levels are welcome.
Most teams practice 3–5 times per week, with optional weekend meets throughout the season.
Clinics are non-competitive sessions focused on skill development, typically held in spring, fall, and winter. Swim teams provide opportunities for competition, with most participation and competition taking place in the summer GKAISA league. Both offer high-quality training for swimmers of all levels.
