Ducks Swim Club

For kids 5-18 with a minimum of Fish level experience, the YMCA Youth Swim Club introduces youth to the sport of competitive swimming. The Club focuses on personal best and team sportsmanship rather than competition. Practices focus on endurance, fitness and stroke development.

Each season includes practices, a swim meet, a community service project, socials and stroke development programs. A calendar is given out at first practice.

->Advanced Ducks (Coach Recommendation):

Will focus on competitive swimming techniques while still encouraging a healthy lifestyle. They will participate in drills that will focus on faster starts and turns and more efficient stroke techniques.

->Adult Swim Club - Masters Swim Level 3

Join us for a 1000-2000 yard conditioning and/or stroke refinement workout. The fundamentals of freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke are prerequisites for the club. (Fitness Pool)
