The Pre-Fins program is a fantastic way to keep your child active while introducing them to our Dolphin Club swim team. It blends the best of swim team practice with group swim lessons, offering personalized coaching to refine their strokes and give them a taste of competitive swimming. Plus, we’ll host fun intra-squad meets at the JCC throughout the year!
In Pre-Fins, swimmers will master the basics of all four competitive strokes in a supportive and engaging environment. Our coaches focus on proper technique, starts and turns, and making swimming enjoyable through games and activities. We’ll also teach essential swimming skills like teamwork, following instructions, and having fun!
Pre-Fins is the perfect precursor to our year-round swim team program. Sign up today and let your child dive into a year of learning, fitness, and fun!
Participation in swim meets is a family’s / swimmer’s choice. Coaches will assess each swimmer to make sure they are ready to compete and will only enter them in events they are eligible to swim.
