BORED OF REGULAR SWIMMING LESSONS?

 

Racing is a catalyst for swimming development. Racing breeds competitiveness, motivation, and confidence for the younger athletes. If your swimmer is tired of coming along to weekly lessons but not doing anything with their swimming, then racing is what they need to do!

 

The Swimzone team really encourages all our swimmers to try out some novice races. They are really low-key, low commitment, and lots of fun.

 

WHY GO TO SOCCER TRAINING EVERY WEEK BUT NEVER PLAY THE GAME ON SATURDAY? IT'S THE SAME THING WITH SWIMMING
