WHY BECOME A COACH OR TEACHER

Swim teachers and coaches give the gift of comfort and efficiency in the water. They enhance the bond between parents and infants through aquatic experiences. They are often the second teachers after the parent of pre-schoolers and enhance their growth to independence.

Swim teachers ensure school children can participate in a myriad of activity and sport in and around the water with their peers and families.

Swim coaches encourage success through monitoring of technique, fitness, skills and guiding swimmers through the steps to personal best success.
