North Shore Swim Club
North Shore Swim Club is accepting children into their swim lesson and swim team programs at Salem State University. The late winter session begins February 17, 2014. North Shore Swim Club will be hosting practices Monday-Thursday's in the evenings. North Shore is a USA swimming club that offers lessons, junior, age group, and competitive senior programs. Lessons are 30 minutes for beginners. Junior practices are 2-3 practices a week for 60 minutes, while learning the development of all four competitive strokes and the fundamentals of starts and turns. An age group swimmer is asked to make 3-4 practices per week for 90 minutes as they learn how to increase the proficiency of their starts, turns and of all four strokes, while also giving the swimmer a base for aerobic conditioning. The competitive senior program is for swimmers who are asked to make 5-6 practices a week for 90 minutes, while seeking stroke improvement, aerobic conditioning and the fundamentals of race strategy.NSSC does not have tryouts, but space is limited. Swimmer evaluations and placements will be during the first week of practice, guaranteeing your children are placed in the appropriate practice level.
