USA Swim Program Information Meeting

Plenty of athletes in Jersey Shore and the surrounding area look for that ‘edge’ to take them to the next level. Often, that edge is advanced training and more competitive competition.

Some Jersey Shore soccer players travel over to Beech Creek to participate in the Soccer Training Network, a year-round program that has professional coaching and a structured curriculum. Local wrestlers travel to Lock Haven’s Mat-Town, also a year round program that has top-notch coaching and training methods. Some Shore basketball players travel over to State College to participate in a travel AAU program while Shore softball players join up with central PA travel teams such as the Gravediggers to experience a high level of competition.

So where do swimmers go? Last year, Lock Haven University’s swim coach Andy Waeger started a USA swim program to improve the level of swimming in central Pennsylvania. With one year under his belt, the program has been very successful as he was able to produce a YMCA State Winner this past March.

If you are interested, there is going to be a family / informational team meeting on Wednesday 8/17 at 6pm at the Zimmerli Classroom #8. (this is the same building as the pool). Check it out!
