As coach Ana enters her 11th season with MAC she has truly highlighted our age group program with her high accomplishments in the 2010-2011 year.  As the coach of the 8 and under age group, which is normally just suited for beginner swimmers, her swimmers had a break out year scoring in the 9-10 age group JO's.  Taking children from just learning to swim and teaching the four competitive strokes is a difficult task, but she also helped her athletes not only qualify for the JO championship meet, but to score as well and help the team to a great year of success. 

With the help of our learn to swim program coach Ana's group will take a big step forward.  The group is sure to improve further due to the fact that all 8 and unders at Tami-Ami will know the competitive strokes and will be at a similar training level.
