This program offers organized (coached) swim practices for all abilities. If you can swim twelve lengths of the indoor pool in the crawl stroke, or you are training for a triathlon, or you are a more accomplished fitness swimmer, we invite you to join us.
Workout times: Hickory Foundation YMCA
M, W & F - 5:30-6:45am
Tu & Th - 12:00-1:00pm
Tu, Th & Sat - 6:45 - 8:00am
At a later date we plan to introduce clinics and programs for people who are interested, but not quite ready for an organized/coached practice. Personal sessions will be available at an additional cost.
Workouts will be coached by Rob Scott, a long time masters swimmer and coach. Rob has had numerous top 10 finishes in his age group at national level competitions. He is also a long time ASCA certified coach and was a head age group swimming coach in Indiana and California.
