Our Masters'
teammates cover the gamut of athletic capability from swimming lesson
graduates to nationally ranked competitors; from tri-athlete addicts
to adults wanting to learn more advanced competitive techniques;
from open-water devotees to exercisers looking for the camaraderie
and esprit found amongst like-minded soles engaging in an activity
to enhance the quality and longevity of their lives. We are a program
where one size fits all (thanks to the amazing developments in lycra!).
Our Master's program utilizes the same coaching resources as the
Age Group Program while enjoying workout times and locations devoted
exclusively to the Masters program. Our
workouts are tailored to address the various skill levels represented.
Stroke mechanics and competitive techniques are routinely incorporated
into workouts to increase each member's swimming I.Q. The Sea Devils
Masters are a collection of individuals each with his or her own
reasons for participation, but together, have a passion for the sport
and the benefits that this athletic pursuit brings to their lives,
and those around them. Come check us out. We are more than just a
swim team!
