This is a co-op team with Coon Rapids High School.
The Totino-Grace and Coon Rapids Co-Op Swim Team focuses on skill development as well as character development. The program is set up to encourage hard work, perseverance, and commitment in their athletes.
No swimming or diving experience is necessary to join and everyone gets to compete, regardless of ability- we do not cut athletes. All you need is a swimsuit and goggles!
Practices are held at Northdale Middle School Pool, generally from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Boys swim and dive season begins in November and ends in late February.
