Fun Team Fact? Our Masters Team has an “entry level” group, which began after we had a very positive response in the club from our Adult Learn to Swim Clinics we held last spring. Out of the nearly 60 participants in the clinics, seven were interested enough to join a special masters group and began a series of lessons which now after one year have grown into workouts. We have also increased the size of the group to 19, and one of those “beginners” who started with us 6 months ago, swam in her first Masters meet last week at the Sun Devil Masters Sprinters Spectacular held at the Arizona State facility on March 15. This is in addition to the overall growth of the regular program this past year. It’s really been an exciting time for all!
