Alligator Aquatics will be hosting a High School Conditioning Camp beginning at the end of our regular season Monday through Friday from July 15 - August 2. Check our Registration Portal in early July to register for the camp. This is a great way to keep swimming and stay in shape during the off-season or prior to the start of the IHSA Girls 2024 Swimming Season. Registration is open to all HS aged swimmers!

Mark your calendars! We will be holding our Fall Stroke Clinic and Alligator University from August 19 - August 30 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at St. Viator HS. This is a great opportunity to learn more about stroke technique and details. Registration will open in Mid July.

This month's Swimmer Spotlight goes to Brady Kirkiris! Brady had a huge year of improvements, qualifying for the Age Group State Championships this March in 4 events! Brady is one of the most polite and respectful kids on our team. He is kind to everyone and super conscientious about doing what he needs to be doing. Brady always tries his best, is a great teammate, and wonderful swimmer to coach. We look forward to greater and greater things from this team leader!
