2023 Mini HOX Summer Program

Program Dates: June 12 - July 21

PROGRAM INFORMATION

Summer Mini HOX exposes children to the fun and excitement of participating in a recreational swim team setting with the potential to participate on the HOX Swim Team in the coming year or two. The program is ideal for children who enjoy the water but may find it challenging to swim the full length of a 25-yard competition pool. As such, Junior Coaches will be in the water during practice. Stroke technique is taught in all four competitive strokes: backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, and freestyle as well as other fundamental principles of swimming. Your child should be 3-6 years old by June 15, 2023, and fully potty trained to participate in the Mini HOX program.

If you are unsure if this program is appropriate for your child, Coach Sean evaluates all swimmers and can make recommendations for the appropriate program, session, or private lesson. Email Sean at: seanq@blackhawkcc.org, to set up a mandatory evaluation.

The Mini HOX Liaison is Aubrey Buck. Please feel free to email her at: Aubrey.f.buck@gmail.com with any questions or concerns you may have as they relate to Mini HOX.
