Our master's program offers adult swimmers at all levels an opportunity to attend coached workouts, stroke feedback and help in preparing to compete if that is your goal. We offer 10 practices times throughout the week. Practice will begin at Mack on Sept. 26. Learn more at a2gov.org/masters or sign up using the online registration system.
An inclusive team for swimmers ages 5-17. Must be able to swim one length of the pool, front crawl. The Mack Swim Team will participate in the Southern Michigan Swim League (SMSL) which offers competition in dual meets along with a championship meet each session.
This year's swim team structure is based on CDC guidelines and the continued presence of covid-19. To offer your swimmer the safest swimming experience possible, our 10 and under swimmers will practice two days a week at a ratio of 1 coach to 8 swimmers. That means your swimmer will be getting a lot of feedback and attention from each practice. For our 11 and older swimmers, we will be offering practice 3 days a week at a ratio of 1 coach to 10 swimmers. Days and times are listed below, and swimmers will have to commit to a fixed practice schedule for this session.
