Welcome to The YMCA Presidio Aquatics Club - Home of the Pirates

  

The YMCA Presidio Aquatics Club (YPAC) is a year-round United States Swimming (USS) competitive swim team offering high-quality professional coaching and technique instruction for swimmers aged 7-18 years old, and for all abilities. The goal of our team is to provide every member an opportunity to improve swimming skills and achieve success at his or her level of ability, from novice to advanced competitor, while encouraging teamwork and support of all team members in achieving their own personal bests.

 

 

 

 

The Presidio Pirates, as the team is called, is a member of Pacific Swimming Zone 3, and competes in monthly meets in the Bay Area.

All of our coaches, as members of the American Swim Coaches Association, have access to the most comprehensive training and certification program for youth coaches of any sport in the United States. This assures that the time children spend in swimming will be quality time.

The YMCA Presidio Aquatics Club, under the auspices of the non-profit Presidio YMCA, is advised by its Parents Advisory Council (PAC PAC). All members are welcome at every meeting and encouraged to be involved in team activities and fundraisers.

First Mates

 

The YMCA Presidio Aquatics Club also offers a "First Mates" program as a stepping stone between swim lessons and the competitive youth swim team.  This non-competitive class meets twice per week, giving students either the basic skills needed for participation with the competitive swim team or a non-competitive alternative with a low Instructor:Participant ratio.  Swimmers work on building endurance and refining stroke technique.
