Information
PCA Dolphin
Swim Team
Spring
Session 2008
We will be reviewing strokes,
group assignments, working on mechanics and improving technique to help
each swimmer prepare for the upcoming season.
The PCA Dolphin philosophy
is to develop each athlete to view swimming as a lifetime sport with
improvement at every level. The Dolphin coaching staff also
encourages age group swimmers to explore other activities while being
a member of PCA. Our practice schedule is set up to allow each
athlete to find a practice group that will allow them to succeed in
swimming and also have the time to explore music, dance, academics,
and other sports after school.
If you are a returning
swimmer and know your level, please fill out the form and attach
a check and return it to PCCC. If you are a Peninsula Covenant Community
Center Member you may charge your child’s activity to your account.
Please feel free to contact Coach Dave for additional information at
davek@peninsulacovenant.com, or (650) 364-6272.

the PCA program a swimmer evaluation is required. Evaluatoin dates are
