Summer will be here before we know it and many of our Curtis Park families have asked about ways their swimmers can get a head start before the season officially begins.
We’ve gathered a few great local options that may work for summer league swimmers who want to sharpen their skills, build confidence, and come into the season strong.
Option 1: RAYS Developmental Program (Month-to-Month)
The RAYS offer a developmental, month-to-month option that is perfect for swimmers who want structured instruction before summer league begins.
This program focuses on:
Stroke development
Starts and turns
Endurance and technique refinement
Practices are held at:
Jeff Rouse Swim & Sport Center (JRSSC)
Massad YMCA
This flexible option allows families to register month-to-month, making it a convenient way to prepare without committing long-term.

May 18–21, 2026

Why Consider a Jump Start?

Build early-season endurance
Improve stroke technique
Transition smoothly into summer practices
We’re excited to see our Seahawks back in the water soon and if your swimmer is eager to get started early, these programs may be a great fit!
