Intro To Competitive Swimming

Our Intro To Competitive Swimming is designed to inspire and teach swimmers who are beginner swimmers. It is recommended that participants of the Intro To Competitive Swimming camp are able to swim one lap of each stroke. Campers are not required to have participated previously on an organized team. The intent of Intro To Competitive Swimming is to develop each stroke under the guidance and experience of some of the best college coaches in the country! The camp will approach the training session from a beginner’s standpoint, helping younger athletes who know how to swim, continue to master the basics and taking new steps to learn more challenging swimming skills.

Each camper will receive a Pittsburgh Swim Camp t-shirt and cap!
