The Piedmont Swim Team is a year round competitive team that focuses on individual excellence in a team environment. Head Coach Stefan Bill says, “Our goal is to create a safe and joyful environment for all, that allows each athlete to excel.”
Anyone from ages 6-18 is welcome to try out as long as they enjoy being in the water and are interested in learning new and different skills. Swimmers should be able to do freestyle comfortably, with breathing to the side, backstroke comfortably, and have some basic breaststroke knowledge. Older kids should have a little more technical skill.
“All of our swimmers are super friendly, our parents are helpful and accommodating, and with that we are hopeful that swimmers joining us can find the passion for a sport they can ultimately do for the rest of their lives,” said Coach Bill.
Tryouts will be 8/15-8/17 from 4 – 6:30 p.m. at the Montclair Swim Club (1901 Woodhaven Way, Oakland). Anyone interested should email Kelley at joinpst@piedmontswimteam.org
