EAST

Join the East Aurora Swim Team for an exciting new season! Successful development, team building and focused training are the backbone of this club. Each EAST level has meaningful instruction that encourages each swimmer's proper overall development.  Registration in each level is limited, and planning time is needed for coaches, so please register early.  

EAST is a swim club held at the East Aurora High School that is Coached by Town of Aurora Staff, and supported by the Parent Booster Club. Being part of the EAST Family includes parental help running meets during the season, so parent volunteering is an expected and rewarding part of the program.

Program Notes
EAST uses a "progressive" age group program designed to develop the child physically, mentally, and emotionally in a systematic fashion. A well-defined, long-term approach of gradually increasing degrees of commitment is essential to reach peak performance levels during a swimmer's physiological prime. The emphasis in the early stages of participation must be placed on developing technical skills and a love for the sport. In the later years, a more demanding physical and psychological challenge is implemented into the training program. In addition to emphasizing long-term rather than short term results, EAST has established training groups of swimmers who are compatible in respect to abilities, commitment levels and goals.
