Campers receive concentrated instruction on all four strokes along with starts and turns at Uytengsu Aquatics Center located on the beautiful USC campus. Upon arrival, campers are placed in groups with other swimmers that have similar abilities and goals. Our camp staff does their best to accommodate your needs, keeping in consideration your experience and desire to improve.

Age Group, National Qualifiers, High School Swimmers or Summer League Swimmers) with all four competitive strokes: Fly, Back, Breast, and Freestyle. Participants should have experience with competitive starts and turns and be able to complete a continuous 100 yard swim.
