Haven Swim School for Competitive Swimmers To Start Up On Monday


What is the Haven Swim School for Competitive Swimmers?
The Haven Swim School is proud to be offering training and technique clinics for local competitive swimmers for the 2012-2013 season. We will run our program as an ongoing series of competitive clinics that will be geared toward improvement from local competitive swimmers in the Central Pennsylvania region.  The proceeds of the Haven Swim School will benefit the Women’s Swimming program at LHU.

Who can participate?
This year we will be offering 2 types of groups.
Training Group- This is encouraged for swimmers 10 and up that have a very good grasp of all four strokes and are looking to push themselves. Our training sessions will consist of 3challenging 1.5 hour practices each week and will work all components of a competitive swimming program.
Technique Group- This group is for swimmers of all ages that have a grasp on the swimming strokes but are looking to improve their technique.Technique group will meet 2 times each week and will strictly work on strokes for 1 hour each time.
We will have a maximum of 30 participants in the training group and 25 participants in the technique group.

Why the change?
Though USA Swimming is a great opportunity (that is still offered), we feel that each swimmer had a different goal in mind when participating. We want to serve the swimming community of Central Pennsylvania and feel that a series of dependable clinics given by our coaches with the goal in mind of helping swimmers get faster is the new direction to go in. With this change, swimmers that are here to work exclusively on technique will get that opportunity to, and swimmers that want to train towards specific goals will also have that opportunity.

What are the prices?
Training Group- 1.5 hours $60/Month
Technique Group- 1 hour- $35/month

I liked USA Swimming? Can I still participate?
Absolutely! Though we are no longer a registered USA Swimming team, you can still participate as an “Unattached” swimmer. If you are part of a local YMCA team, you must register as unattached anyway. In the previous two years, 95% of our swimmers were registered this way.
Our coaches will remain registered through USA Swimming and we will assist you in the process of registering for USA Swimming if you would like to go this route.
