Wahoo Swim Team FAQ

Fri, March 25 2011

We are going into our 5th season at the pool!  The swim team has swimmers with many different ability levels. We have the Junior Wahoo who are children typically between the ages of 3-5. (Potty trained and out of swim diapers). With this group we like to get the young ones used to the water, the sport and the team. Once they’re comfortable they can start swimming the meets.

The Wahoo age range is 5-18 years old. Our coaches are good at meeting individual needs and desires of all swimmers, while promoting the positive benefits of a team sport. Swim team is about neighborhood friendships, celebration, great coaching, the many parent enthusiasts, and even the workouts. If you haven’t yet been a part of this great sport, please see what it’s all about on the 7th of May at our pool.

A parent from Avondale Swim Team couldn’t have said it any better. I’ve provided  her “Swim Team Survival Guide” under the Swim Team FAQs link to the left. Feel free to ask the coaches to expand on any points if you have questions.
