NON-COMPETITIVE SWIM SESSIONS
Some swimming clubs aim to prepare swimmers mainly for competitions and professional swimming goals. Our club aims for a similar standard of swimming excellence without the pressure of regular competitions and meets.
TRAINED COACHES
Our trained coaches focus and strive to fine tune all aspects of the sport including diving, turning, stroke detailing, to preparing for a swim meet.
WE GO THE EXTRA MILE
Our club offers swimming as an athletic endeavour. Kids (and adults!) who are already at home in the pool and can swim independently can hone their skills, discipline and mastery of swimming.
ALL OUT FUN
We make time for fun games, family activities, and mini meets. This enables our amazing swimmers to get to know each other and celebrate their success.
SWIMMING CLUBSESSION SCHEDULE
PARTICIPATION
Participation goes beyond mere attendance; it involves active involvement, enthusiasm, and a genuine commitment to the task at hand.
TEAMWORK
Teamwork is the cornerstone of success in any collaborative endeavor. It is the collective effort of individuals coming together, pooling their skills, knowledge, and resources to achieve a common goal.
SPORTMANSHIP
Sportsmanship is the embodiment of integrity, respect, and fair play in the realm of sports. It goes beyond mere skill or winning; it encompasses the values that elevate competition to a higher level.
PROFICIENCY
Proficiency is achieved through dedicated practice, continuous learning, and a deep understanding of the subject matter. It goes beyond basic knowledge and involves a refined level of proficiency that enables individuals to perform complex tasks or solve intricate problems.

LEARN MOREABOUT SPARTANS
While there are pools that offer swimming lessons for kids who are just getting comfortable in the water, our club offers swimming as an athletic endeavour. Kids (and adults!) who are already at home in the pool and can swim independently can hone their skills, discipline and mastery of swimming.
Spartans Aquatic Club is based out of the Fritz Sick Memorial Pool and offers non-competitive swim sessions from September to May. Our trained coaches focus and strive to fine tune all aspects of the sport including diving, turning, stroke detailing, to preparing for a swim meet. They also work on endurance and incorporate stretching routines. We also make time for fun games, family activities, and mini meets. This enables our amazing swimmers to get to know each other and celebrate their success.
Some swimming clubs aim to prepare swimmers mainly for competitions and professional swimming goals. Our club aims for a similar standard of swimming excellence without the pressure of regular competitions and meets.
We can summarize all that in our mission statement:
The Spartans Aquatic Club is a local non-profit organization that is committed to developing and producing high performance and competitive swimmers at all levels, emphasizing individual progress, team unity and family participation.
SEE YOU AT THE POOL!!!
Spartans Aquatic ClubOUR COACHES
COACHTiara
Say hello to Coach Tiara — your go-to guide for fun, learning, and a splash of adventure in the pool! Now in her third year with the Spartans, Tiara brings experience, energy, and a love of swimming to every practice. She swam competitively when she was younger, still swims for fun, and holds certifications in Swim for Life, LSI, Swim Abilities, Swimming 101, and National Lifeguard.
Tiara’s favourite strokes to teach are butterfly, where she loves watching swimmers improve stroke by stroke, and back crawl, her personal favourite from her own competitive days. She coaches all ages, making practice relaxed, fun, and full of games, so every swimmer learns while having a blast. Her motto? “Even the hardest skills become fun with practice — just keep swimming!”
Outside the pool, Tiara enjoys archery, playing piano, and hanging out with her new cat, Ellie. She’s a pro at keeping houseplants alive (but tomatoes? Not so much!). This season, she’s most excited to be back at Fritz Sick, building a strong team with new coaches and meeting new swimmers. With Coach Tiara, every practice is fun, encouraging, and packed with splash-worthy success!

COACHJonah
Say hello to Coach Kraken — the fastest front-crawl fan and the coolest guide in the pool! Jonah might be new to swim coaching, but he’s spent years teaching kids life skills with Scouts, and now he’s bringing that same energy, humour, and safety-first attitude to every practice.
A former swimmer with LASC, Mantas, and Lethbridge Diving Club, Coach Kraken loves helping swimmers get faster, stronger, and more confident — especially when it comes to the front crawl, his favourite stroke to teach. He’s all about cheering every effort, not just the victories, because “you don’t have to BE the best — I’m proud if you DO your best!”
Outside the pool, Jonah is a roller derby warrior, earning the nickname “Kraken” for his unstoppable energy. He’s also a lifeguard and certified SCUBA diver — so yes, he really does rule the water! This season, Coach Kraken can’t wait to help swimmers grow individually, and grow their love of swimming — and have a blast doing it.

COACHBecca
Hi, I’m Junior Coach Becca! I started swimming with the Spartans when I was seven years old, and I am now working as a Junior Coach! As a Junior Coach, I am usually off to the side learning, observing, and writing lesson plans, and sometimes I even get to coach all by myself (with supervision in case I have a question or need help).
It is such a great opportunity to get to know and coach all of your awesome swimmers.

COACHKennedy
Say hello to Coach Kennedy! She’s been teaching swimming lessons for over three years and brings a strong background in competitive swimming with the Lethbridge Orcas and JLC with the Mantas. Kennedy holds her Lifesaving Instructor, Swim Instructor, and Sport Coach certifications, and she’s ready to share her love of the water with the team.
Her favourite stroke to coach? Breaststroke — it was her main event as a competitive swimmer, and she loves both the challenge and the calm rhythm of the stroke. Kennedy enjoys working with all age groups, building strong connections while helping swimmers grow, improve, and reach their goals through clear feedback and encouragement. Her philosophy: “You can improve at anything as long as you put the work in and believe you can accomplish it.”
Outside of coaching, Kennedy’s never far from the water, and you can almost always spot her with something pink (her favourite colour!). She also collects keychains from her travels and from friends and family, each one a little reminder of a place or memory.
This season, Kennedy is excited to meet new swimmers, build bonds with the team, and work alongside her fellow coaches to make it a season to remember.
