While the swim season may only be a few months, Competitive Swimming Director Mike McHugh champions are being built on a much more long-term basis. The Door County YMCA swim teams have several athletes who are prepared to make noise on a national level. Many of which preceded their time in the pool with the Peak Performance Camp, a program that utilizes over $9,000 worth of agility performance equipment that helps to develop a powerful foundation of agility and speed, along with strength and endurance. With well over 1,000 state qualifiers under his belt, McHugh says the camp pushes kids to their best, and the results prove it.

 

McHugh is excited for the upcoming season because of the talent coming back and the hard work they have put in to prepare. He also adds that the community support has also been instrumental to the program’s success, pointing to the use of new video screens to help teach kids continuous improvement during practices and competitions.
