Why we do this
Most swimmers and their families don't know where to start: which programs to target, who is recruiting, or how to stand out. Coaches, meanwhile, are stretched thin. We built Streamline Swimming so that a swimmer's times, grades, and goals decide where they end up, and so that coaches spend their time on swimmers who fit.
Streamline Athletes has done this for track and field and cross country since 2017. Streamline Swimming brings the same approach to the pool, led by someone who has recruited swimmers for his own teams.
