Pre-Competitive Program

Update 10/30: There will be no precompetevie classes in the winter months. The Precomp clss will start up again in March.

Our Pre-Competitive program is held at Montclair Swim Club. This program is available for swimmers ages 6-9 who meet the prerequisites. Your swimmer will learn the basic mechanics of an efficient and effective competitive stroke, the basics of competitive starts and turns, and be introduced to the structure and rhythm of a competitive swim team practice. Our curriculum is based on the American Development Model by USA-Swimming (Level 1), however we are customizing our program based on the group's needs. Swimmers who have successfully completed four sessions will have priority to join PST’s competitive swim team.

We are now offering a precomp class on Friday and Saturdays. Friday is at Montclair Swim Club and will run from 3:45 - 4:45pm (1901 Woodhaven Way Oakland CA 95611) and on Saturdays at Mills College, Trefethan Aquatic Center from 9:30 to 10:15am (5000 MacArthur Blvd, Oakland CA 94613)

If you are concerned your swimmer is not ready for the Pre Competetive Program contact our Head Developmental Coach Adrien Downey and schedule an evaluation. Adrien will let you know if your swimmer is ready for precomp or needs more time in lessons. Evaluations take at most 5 - 10 minutes to complete.

Schedule an evaluation with Zach by emailing Zachary@piedmontswimteam.org
