This is our 2nd year as a swim team, although our program has been operating as a SWIM AMERICA swim lessons program, Ms. Jane's Swim School LLC, for more than a decade. Thanks to our HOA partnerships, we are excited to offer a Swim Team again this summer! Working with Texas Amateur Athletic Federation (TAAF), we are also able to offer our swimmers the opportunity for region-wide competitive swim meets against Region 4 participants to help grow the sport of swimming for Little Elm Area athletes. Many of our swimming locations are the same that are used for High School and USA Swim Meets.
This program is appropriate for swimmers 6 and up who have mastered freestyle swimming with continuous side breathing for a short distance and can swim on their backs. Swimmers will learn how to tread water, dive from the sitting, kneeling, and standing positions, and work on their endurance in freestyle. And learn to compete at swim meets.
Swimmers will also learn:
-
BACKSTROKE
-
BUTTERFLY
-
BREASTSTROKE
-
FLIP TURNS
-
INDIVIDUAL MEDLEY
-
STARTS
-
STREAMLINES
-
RACING
