The road to the Olympics starts with the “Yuma Heat”. Our program is designed to take a swimmer from novice to elite. Each subsequent level builds upon the last. Development in stroke mechanics, starts, turns, race strategy, training techniques, strength and conditioning all lead to a well rounded and successful athlete. Our younger swimmers learn in a fun,active environment. As they grow, the joys of accomplishment, and the hard work associated with it, become a source of pride. In the end, the lessons taught in the pool are carried into life … a strong work ethic, dedication, focus, a healthy lifestyle, goal setting, and self-esteem. We offer a wonderful place, and a wonderful way, for a child to grow up.

Yuma’s only year round USA Swim Team offers competitive and fitness swimming for ages 4 thru adult.  Practices are Monday thru Friday afternoon and evening at Marcus Pool. Fees range from $55 to $75 per month depending on the swimmer’s age and skill level.

For more information, call (928) 580-7404, e-mail Andersen@yumaheat.org, or visit www.yumaheat.org for more information and to download and print a registration packet.
