HOUSTON - Fresh off its 20th-place finish at the NCAA Championships, the University of Houston Swimming & Diving program and Houston Cougar Aquatic Sports will soon host the first annual Fast Star Swim Camp.
Under the direction of UH head swimming coach Mark Taylor and Houston Cougar Aquatic Sports coach Mark Cresswell, the camp will consist of two sessions.
Taylor, who recently guided the Cougars to their first Top 20 finish at the NCAA national meet in 18 years, brings a wealth of experience to the camp after coaching Lithuania at the 1996 Olympic Games. He is part of an award-winning coach staff that will work with the swimmers at the camp.
The first session, open to swimmers from ages 10 to 14 years old, will be held April 7-11. The second session, for swimmers from ages five to nine years old, will be held April 14-17.
Each session will be held at Melcher Natatorium on the UH campus from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. daily.
Cost for the first session is $100 per swimmer, while the cost for the second session is $80 per swimmer.
Space is limited, so interested participants should reserve their places soon.
