The Marshfield Area YMCA Sharks Swim Team promotes an atmoshpere that develops its swimmers in spirit, mind, and body, using the sport of swimming as a tool to prepare athletes for a healthy, active adulthood. Fast swimming is a byproduct of successful training. Our swimmers not only learn the values of training and persistence, but also make gains in focus, attention to detail, and how to balance their overall lifestyles. The rewards of this experience are measurable both in and outside the pool!
Coach Aaron has been with the Sharks since August 2007. He started his swimming career at the age of 12 with the Oshkosh YMCA Dolphins, and went on to the Appleton YMCA Marlins (now a part of the YMCA of the Fox Cities). He graduated from Oshkosh North High School and moved on to UW-Stevens Point, where he continued his swimming career and majored in Interior Architecture and German. While at UWSP, Aaron studied abroad in Magdeburg, Germany, and competed with the HSV Medizin Magdeburg swim team. Since college, he has worked as an Assistant Coach at the Fox Cities YMCA, as well as Head Coach at the Stevens Point Area YMCA. He has also helped out with the Central Wisconsin Swim Camps each year. He has been seen in the pool swimming occasionally, but it has never been pretty!
