A program clinic at the Door County YMCA designed to elevate the game of area athletes is impacting the DCY Swim Team. Peak Performance is a high-intensive course offered in June at the YMCA. It is similar to CrossFit workouts and offers over $9,000 worth of agility performance equipment that develops a foundation of agility, speed, strength, and endurance. Competitive Swimming Director Mike McHugh says the swim team and other elite athletes in Door County have realized the benefits of Peak Performance.
McHugh has coached well over 1,000 state qualifiers from multiple sports and has one of the top three swim youth programs in the state. The program has boys and girls aged six to 12 participating. He expects many kids to qualify for the state finals in March at Brown Deer, with the YMCA national competition held in Greensboro, North Carolina, from March 31 to April 4.
