Week 1: July 6 – 10
The Vancouver Pacific Swim Club (VPSC) is excited to announce our 2026 Summer Training Camps! Building on the success of our Spring Clinic, these weekly camps provide a structured environment for focused technical development, revamped dryland training, and interaction with guest performance coaches.
Program Highlights
- Weekly Technical Focus: Targeted development for specific strokes and skills each week.
- Performance Guest Coaches: A high-performance athlete will join as a guest coach each week to lead sessions.
- Revamped Dryland: Dryland sessions specifically designed to complement the in-water technical focus.
Skill Development (Week 1-3)
- These camps are designed to build a strong technical foundation across all four strokes, starts, and turns.
- Swimmers will focus on developing efficient movement patterns, improving stroke technique, and gaining a better understanding of the fundamentals of competitive swimming. Dryland sessions will support this by building general athletic ability and helping athletes understand how body position and movement on land translate into the water.
- This is ideal for swimmers looking to develop consistency and efficiency in their skills.
Minimum Requirements

- Able to swim at least 2 x 50m of Freestyle/Backstroke/Breaststroke, and base level of Butterfly.
