Welcome Back!

Welcome back for the new season!

We will kick off our new season tomorrow 8/13/25.  The practice schedule and google calendars have been updated to the new schedule for the fall.   Both are available on our website homepage. 

We hope everyone has rested and enjoyed the break and you’re ready for a new season of getting better and embracing THE GATOR STANDARD.

A few updates on some behind the scenes things. We are currently holding some interviews for new staff. We had some unforeseen changes in staffing during the break that we are working on so stay patient with us on the season kick off. 

Coach Jason and Coach Julia are both pursuing different career opportunities and will not be returning to the deck for the season. We wish them both the best as they pursue fields off the deck and thank them for their time at Gator. 

Coach Peter will be joining us for the short course season as he finishes up his degree at UF after four years of competing for the Florida Gators. 

Coach Makayla will be returning to us this year after competing her senior season with the Florida Gators. She has also been a camp counselor with Gator Swim Camp and has a passion for getting swimmers to love the sport. 

Coach Connor will be taking lead roles in D1 and A1 going forward. He speaks little kid swimming and think he will be a great ambassador to our swimmers as they move up into new groups and have an increase in their training capacities. 

Coach Gus has received a salary position and will be helping a lot with back office distribution and gear. So you’ll be getting a lot from him as we start our new season with merchandising. His new email is [email protected] .

Coach Bryce, Coach Gus and Coach John will be assisting in A2 and A3 programing as we work through our long term plan with staffing for these two groups. We have three interviews in the next week for the position with some coaches that have previous head coaching experience so we feel confident we will have someone in place in a short period of time. 

We will have a lot more out this week as we return to work on full after getting some vacation time in after a long season. We look forward to seeing everyone back in the pool!
