Barracuda Swim School Program
Swim School is for kids who would like to join the club but have not yet developed the endurance. This program is open to all children 5-8 years old who are comfortable swimming 10 meters unassisted. The focus is on developing the front crawl, backstroke, and dolphin kick in a small class size setting. Once a child has graduated from Swim School they have the necessary skills to join our Development III program. Maximum 22 students per session.
Before you swim with the club, new members interested in swim school must be evaluated by a Prince George Barracuda Coach prior to registration.
Please contact our registrar ([email protected]) for available times.
