About Us

 

Greater Evansville Swimming, Inc. 

A 501(c)(3) Nonprofit Organization

Welcome to the Greater Evansville Aquatic Team (GREAT). We are a USA Swimming and Indiana Swimming affiliated year-round competitive swim club. Along with being members of USA Swimming and Indiana Swimming, we are also a part of the Southern Indiana Swim Conference, which is made up of other affiliated swim clubs in the Southern Indiana region. We are located in Evansville, IN and have been dedicated to serving the greater Evansville area since 2003. We offer high quality professional coaching, training and technique instruction for all ages and abilities. All of our coaches, as members of USA Swimming, have access to the most comprehensive resources for youth coaches of any sport in the United States. This provides assurance that the time children spend swimming with GREAT will be quality time. We provide every swimmer the opportunity to improve and achieve success at their level of ability, from the novice to the national level. At the heart of our mission is developing our youth into young men and women ready to succeed in life, both professionally and personally. It is our belief that there is no better sport than swimming to teach valuable life lessons, and to help kids grow into exemplary adults and role models. We believe that the efforts of our swimmers, coaches, parents, and community help create a rewarding experience for everyone involved.
