Nike Technique Swim Camp is back at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh

San Rafael, CA - USSC is pleased to announce that the 2020 Pittsburgh Nike Swim Camp will be hosted at Carnegie Mellon University this coming summer! The university's main campus is 3 miles from downtown Pittsburgh, between Schenley Park and the Squirrel Hill, Shadyside, and Oakland neighborhoods.

At the Nike Swim Camp at Carnegie Mellon University, our goal is to maximize swimming potential by helping swimmers to create a winning mindset and provide ongoing and constructive feedback in the pool to improve stroke technique.

Campers will train each day the swimming and diving pool, home to the Carnegie Mellon University varsity swimming and diving teams and serves as a recreational space for the campus community.

"This camp is geared towards swimmers ages 8-16 with the goals of perfecting stroke mechanics and increasing overall knowledge of the sport," states Matthew Kinney, camp director and the head coach of Carnegie Mellon's swimming team. "Campers will receive instruction on each of the four major strokes and work on the skill aspects (starts, turns, finishes) of each."

This summer Carnegie Mellon is offering two sessions of day camp June 22-25 & June 29-July 2 from 9:00am-4:00pm each day. Upon arrival at camp, campers are placed in groups with other swimmers having similar abilities and goals. Enrollment is limited to 50 campers so interested swimmers are encouraged to register early.
