Gups

Group Description

The Gups group serves as our Intro to ABSC practice offering!

We will teach technique for the four competitive strokes, learn streamlines and turns, and all-around introduce Gups swimmers to competitive club swimming.

Gups are encouraged to participate in USA Swimming sanctioned meets, so swimmers in this group should be able to complete 1 lap of each stroke. For those unable to do so, we recommend our Stroke Clinic Series! Note** meets are not required for the Gups.

To learn more about the Gups or group or how to register, email Mike Radford. Also see our Join the Club page. To sign up for an evaluation, fill out our 2018 Pre-registration form.
