Welcome! On behalf of the CG Aqua Lion team, we want to welcome you to our swimming program. We are looking forward to building a connection and taking part in your students’ swimming journey. Below you will find information that will guide you through our program. Our Swim Club Program “OUR MISSION: TO DEVELOP CHAMPIONS IN & OUT OF THE WATER” The Cottage Grove Aqua Lion Swimming Club is a USA Swimming year-round competitive team offering high-quality professional coaching and technique instruction for swimmers of all ages and abilities. Our swim team is structured by different program groups to be safe and fun. Each group within the Cottage Grove Aqua Lion Swimming Club is designed to provide every member an opportunity to improve swimming skills and achieve success at his or her level of swimming ability, from novice to international competition. Swim Team Ready? The goal of our CGAL Team coaching staff is to promote a positive experience by setting up our USA competitive swimmers with the best opportunity for success, safety, and fun to avoid burnout, injuries, and discouragement. Because swimming is a journey, we want to guide swimmers to the next appropriate step, in order to accomplish this we conduct a swim evaluation with one of our Swim Team Coaches. The evaluation also gives us an opportunity to meet with the swimmer and parents to answer any questions and provide additional information. During the evaluation we are looking for
-
Safe Water Practices
-
Appropriate Stroke Technique
-
Pre-Team Knowledge and Skills
Swim Team Groups Based on swim skill/level, swimmers join our Pre-Team Stroke Academy, Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Senior Group as a registered Oregon Swimming and USA Swimming Athlete to participate in USA Swimming sanctioned meets. Practice times vary depending on group.
You may contact us with any questions or to schedule an evaluation at 541-767-3538.
We look forward to making your swimming journey a fun and successful one!
