| Skill Development Camps 2008 These swim camps are best suited for swimmers who have at least one year of competitive experience at the USS, YMCA or interscholastic level. It is designed to enhance skill technique of all four competitive strokes, starts and turns. Campers must be comfortable being in the pool for an hour at a time. Resident campers ages 10-12 must attend camp with a friend(s) as roommates. Camps include swimming workouts, dryland training in power yoga, and instruction in the use of weight training equipment. In addition, underwater video stroke analysis, technique drills and “chalk-talks” on nutrition, dryland training and sports psychology will be offered. Upon the request of the camper a written evaluation will be generated for the swimmer’s personal coach. Campers will participate in our evening recreation program (see important information). The camp is held at the Cornell University main campus in Ithaca, New York.
