Cobias is a competitive swim team, intended for those who, as a minimum, know the basic strokes, according to its website. While it is not a venue for learning to swim, it is one for improving technique, speed, and endurance. Heavily stressed are the qualities of sportsmanship, friendship, discipline, competitiveness and team spirit.
Registering now for its year round swim team, Cobias is a member of USA Swimming, the national governing body for amateur competitive swimming in the country. The club's 2013-2014 season is set to include several sessions, which will span from August to March, according to its Facebook page.
