Aquatics

The mission of the YBAC is to offer competitive swimming opportunities to all Alamance County residents while developing the traits of integrity, self-esteem, and caring through the sport of swimming.  A link to the complete YBAC page can be found below.  For more information, please email ybac@acymca.org.

The goal of our Swim Lesson Program is to help individuals build their self-confidence by learning the necessary skills to be safe in and around the water for a lifetime.  Here at the Y, we believe swimming is a life skill as well as a great exercise for all ages.

Here’s what you need to know

• When you arrive for your visit
  • Please do not arrive more than 5 minutes before the start of your class. 
  • Please come with only 1 viewer for your visit; the fewer people the better.
  • Please only come to class if your swimmer is 100% healthy. If they are feeling even a little “under the weather,” stay home. If your swimmer or anyone in your house is showing signs of illness, DO NOT COME TO SWIM CLASS.
