COMPETITIVE TEAM
SENIOR GROUP
BlueFin Aquatics Swim Team’s Senior Group is for swimmers between the ages of 13-18 who are able to commit to aggressively training towards the “next level” in their swimming development. The emphasis is on progressively raising the individual swimmer’s training level to meet their swim career goals and objectives. Training includes dryland, video review, and in-water swim sessions.
COMPETITIVE TEAM
JO GROUP
BlueFin Aquatics JO Group is aimed at swimmers typically ages 11 and up who have proven that they are capable of attending practice regularly, and in those practices have demonstrated mentally, physically and from a maturity standpoint that they are ready to commence their journey of learning how to train on a daily basis. Competing in local and regional swim meets in an effort to pursue “next level goals” is a part of this learning process.
DISCOVERY GROUP
BlueFin Aquatics Swim Team’s Discovery Group is for children typically ages 8 and up who know how to swim, but would like to get involved in competitive swimming. We introduce and refine the technique of the 4 strokes, underwaters, racing starts and turns, and prepare the individual for local swim meets that occur quarterly.
For private lessons or interest in “learn to swim” programs , we have partnered with multiple providers in the valley. Contact us for further information and we can refer you to a program near you.

BlueFin Aquatics recognizes that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to developing athletes physically, mentally and socially. We also believe in the words of Michael Phelps who said:
“I wouldn’t say anything is impossible. I think that everything is possible as long as you put your mind to it and put the work and time into it”.
Team Mission
To create a safe and positive environment where children can explore the sport of swimming, and to inspire and develop those seeking to fulfill their potential, from beginners to the elite.
We at BlueFin Aquatics believe that swimming should be a fun and rewarding experience. Our swimmers will challenge themselves in and out of the pool, thereby gaining valuable life experiences that benefit them well beyond their competitive swimming days.
Our founding families trust in the value of Hard Work, Accountability, Self Discipline, and understand that Excellence is always the goal. We are committed to an atmosphere of Team Unity, supporting our fellow athletes, and taking pride in each others achievements at all levels of competition.
