As one of the premier programs in the country, ASU Swimming and Diving is coming off a 4th place finish at the NCAA Championships and multiple Big 12 titles. Campers will be exposed to the same training philosophy, techniques, and performance standards used to develop All-Americans, Team USA athletes, and international-level competitors.
Hosted at the Mona Plummer Aquatic Complex, swimmers will receive instruction in all four competitive strokes, along with starts, turns, and race strategy. Upon arrival, athletes are grouped by ability level and training goals to ensure focused coaching and meaningful progress.
