AJCC Swim Team
The AJCC swim team helps athletes build community, strengthen technical swimming skills, improve endurance, build confidence, and celebrate Jewish culture in a safe and supportive environment.
When you sponsor the AJCC Swim Team, you will:
- Support the JCC’s efforts to fulfill our commitment to teach children to swim
- Provide local youth a safe place to grow and learn important life skills
- Help fund our essential childcare services and educational opportunities
- Support a creative and inclusive space for all children
The AJCC’s year-round swim team emphasizes great coaching, team building, and fun while focusing on stroke drills, endurance swimming, diving, turns, and swimming language. Year-round swim team sessions run seasonally, with separate winter, spring, and summer registration required for each session. Gefilte Fish swimmers (10-years-old and under) practice stroke development while swimmers in the senior Smokin Salmon league work on refining strokes and endurance. Swim league placement is determined by a collaborative assessment involving coaches, parents, and swimmers. Swimmers on both the Gefilte Fish and Smoking Salmon teams must be proficient in freestyle and backstroke and must be able to swim 25 yards to participate in either league. Developmental or private swim lessons may be recommended to prepare your child for swim team. Please email JCC Aquatics Director Wendy Lawrence to schedule a swim evaluation.
