Staenberg Kooper Fellman Campus

Open to Members ages 5-18, JCC Sharks Swim & Dive Team is all about learning and having fun. We strive to help kids progress in ability and technique while also focusing on teamwork, leadership, and personal goal setting. All of our coaches are experienced swimmers with lifeguard and safety training. Coaches work with all participants to build proper form, endurance and team spirit. They introduce swimming as both a sport and fun, healthy life skill. Swimmers are encouraged to challenge themselves at practices and meets. We participate in the Greater Omaha Swim League, a competitive league.
