At Pitt, we strive for excellence in the pool and certainly don’t skimp on the minute details. Our starts and turns are large components of what makes Pitt swimming an elite-performing team. We are excited to share the methodology and programming of our world-class starts and turns with you!
The Pitt Starts and Turns camp will focus on the step-by-step progressions that Pitt swimmers routinely rehearse to perfect these skills and effectively use them to beat our competitors.
Campers will be placed into groups according to their skill level and age, allowing for the appropriate instruction level and progression for each camper. The camper-to-coach ratio will be 10:1 to create the best learning environment possible, promote quality instruction, and provide direct feedback for each camper.
