What is Delta
Aquatics?
Delta Aquatics was founded in 2004 and
swims out of Oswego East High School. Its purpose is to
provide comprehensive aquatics programming to the Oswegoland and
surrounding communities. The cornerstones of our programming
are the Learn to Swim Program, Diving Academy, and the Competitive
Swim Team. All of these programs are focused on giving its
participants the skills necessary for a lifelong enjoyment of
aquatics activities. Each program is endorsed by the highest
accredited organization in its field. By workng with the most
reputable national organizations we guarantee that each program
will offer only the highest quality activities.
Learn to Swim
School
Since 2006 over 3,000 swimmers have participated
in our Learn to Swim program at the Oswego East Pool. We
proudly utilize the SwimAmerica curriculum which is the finest
learn to swim program available. Created by the American Swim
Coaches Association, these lessons are the only lessons which focus
not only on the child learning to swim but learning to swim
correctly. Proper technique can ensure that a swimmer can
swim longer distances or for longer periods of
time.
In addition to our ASCA certified
site-supervisor, each instructor has also completed a SwimAmerica
training course and participated in many hours of
instructional training. This guarantees a continuity in
teaching methodology and expectations guaranteeing your child a
consistent learning experience throughout the various levels.
In addition to the many hours of training, many of our instructors
are competitive swimmers themselves. Swimmers in our Learn to
Swim Program are not only being taught the best curriculum in the
nation but they are also being taught by some of the best swimmers
in the nation. The personal and technical knowledge that our
instructors give to our swimmers only enhances the swimmers
experience.
Competitive Swim
Team
Delta Aquatics is proud to be a member of USA
Swimming, the national governing body for competitive swimming in
America. With over 300,000 swimmers, USA Swimming is one of
the largest competitive organizations in the nation. Delta
Aquatics is also affiliated with Illinois Swimming Inc. which
is our local swimming organization. In order to be members of
these organizations, our coaching staff must have completed the

Delta Aquatics Diving
Academy
Since its beginning, the Delta Aquatics Diving
Academy's objective has been to provide the people in the
Oswegoland area opportunities to get involved in the sport of
diving. The Delta Aquatics Diving Academy's philosophy at the age
group level is simple and straightforward --provide each diver with
the skills and fundamentals he or she needs to be the best diver he
or she can be, in a fun, positive environment.
The focus on skills and fundamentals allow the
Delta Aquatics coaching staff to provide an elite level of coaching
for young age group divers of any skill or experience level. Our
coaching staff combines relevant dry-land practices with the skills
and fundamentals on the board to optimize each diver's growth and
potential.
Perhaps most importantly, our coaching staff's
positive and supportive attitude offers each diver the opportunity
to develop at his or her own pace in a relaxed, yet successful
setting.
