Swim Team (PREP, INT, ADV)
Swim Team Prep/INT
Our Swim Team Prep Group class is intended for students ages 10+ that are able to swim independently and are ready to begin stroke development and additional water safety skills past that of a beginner level student
Our coaches work hard to perfect all 4 competitive strokes. We time our student’s lap time and integrate fun swim team drills into practice. Students will be grouped by age. The age groupings are 5/6, 7/8, 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, and 15-18.
If students master all 4 strokes they can try out for our Swim Team Advanced Group which meets 2:50pm Sunday.
Swim Team ADV
Our Swim Team Advanced Group class is intended for swimmers that are ready for a longer practice length to build endurance. All swimmers must be able to swim full laps of Freestyle, Backstroke, Breaststroke, and Butterfly.
This class is 60 minutes and averages a 4-6 students to 1 instructor ratio, with 6 swimmers being the maximum group size before we add an additional instructor. Lesson length may be reduced to 45 minutes if the number of students enrolled drops below 4 swimmers.

- Butterfly
- Backstroke

FAQ
How can I contact you?
For any questions, please send an email to oconeeflippers@gmail.com or contact us through the JackRabbit parent portal.
Do you offer make-up classes?
If your child is sick we do offer makeup classes. If your child will miss class, please submit an absence through the JackRabbit parent portal.
What should we bring to class?
Bring a towel and a pair of goggles for your child.
Can my swimmer wear goggles?
For kids ages 2 and above we recommend they bring goggles to class! We also have children practice swimming without goggles so they do not become too reliant.
Can I request a specific instructor?
With our online scheduling system, you can request an instructor based on availability.
Can I watch the swim lesson?
We have plenty of chairs for parents to watch the class! For some younger children, we recommend the parents leave the room so the children are not distracted.
Can we come early or stay late after lessons to practice?
If you would like to come to the pool and practice we recommend getting a pool membership. Information on pool memberships can be found at https://www.oconeeaquatics.com/memberships
What happens if the weather causes classes to be canceled?
If classes are to be canceled, customers will receive an email with options to either receive a lesson credit or schedule a makeup class. We have 2 indoor pools so outdoor classes will be moved inside in case of rain.
How long will it take for my swimmer to learn?
Our lessons are for fast-progression learning. If your child is comfortable putting their face in the water they can learn to swim in just a few sessions! If your child is more fearful of putting their eyes in this will take extra practice and encouragement!
