SwimRVA Class 3 Rapids - AGE GROUP

SwimRVA Class 3 Rapids – Age Group is ideal for swimmers who can swim all four strokes legally and looking for a more competitive environment.  Swimmers in the Age Group program are encouraged to focus on sportsmanship as well as personal goal setting.  Practices are more intricate and swimmers will work on practice and clock management.  Coaches will teach the relationship between great technique and fast swimming in a super positive environment.  Dryland is introduced safely in the Age Group program to help with goal attainment.
