Welcome to the home of the All-American Swim Camp, hosted on the campus of Franklin & Marshall College!
We are proud to employ an experienced and energetic staff, who combine learning, training, and fun to help our swimmers get the most out of their camp experiences.
We look forward to hosting one session for summer 2020! Our dates have now been finalized for June 14th-18th, 2020 on the beautiful campus of Franklin & Marshall!!
Our comprehensive camp session features two in-water sessions per day, with both technique and training-focused practices.
The specialty event-focused sessions gives our swim campers the option of selecting additional instruction and training time in an event group of their choice. Choose from sprint, IM, distance, or stroke specific groups.
Camp Highlights include:
Instruction from NCAA head and assistant coaches
Above and underwater video analysis at no extra charge
Daily lectures featuring topics such as nutrition, goal setting, and mental training
Camp gifts for all swimmers featuring Speedo camp t-shirts and caps!
Industry-leading camper to coach ratio of 8:1
Round the clock supervision for residential campers
F&M is home to the beautiful and state-of-the-art Kunkel Aquatic Center, a 50 meter by 25 yard Olympic-sized pool that is home to both USA Swimming and NCAA championship meets on an annual basis. The short-course setup utilized during camp sessions allows for 21 x 25-yard lanes. This allows for plenty of space for personal instruction and both under and above water videotaping sessions.
