Resident camps are open to competitive swimmers who are nine years of age and older. Extended Day and Commuter camps areopen to all swimmers eight years of age and older. For the Stroke Camp, swimmers of most levels and abilities are welcome.  The NCAA prohibits all camps from limiting enrollment based on ability.  That said, each year we have several swimmers join us who have achieved high standards within USA Swimming.  If your camper has yet to participate for at least one season on a team and/or has limited competitive experience, then give us a call or email before registering your camper. NCAA rules allow graduated high school seniors to attend camp.
