Swim Practice

Practices are held at Putnam Aquatics Center, located at 1209 Westover Drive, Palatka FL 32177.

Our practices are structured, supportive, and designed to help every swimmer improve while building confidence and teamwork.

Parents are welcome to drop off their swimmer during the main portion of practice, as long as coaches are aware your child is present and ready to participate.

If you choose to stay, parents are welcome in the main interior area of the building during practice. Many seasoned swim parents hang out in their vehicles.
