Bringing the two teams together will give the North Charlotte Metro area its best option for competitive swimming.
With its mission, “Building excellence in youth and community through competitive swimming” Sailfish Aquatics is a community based competitive swim team that strives to provide the best environment for all swimmers to reach their potential. Our swimmers will be given opportunities to engage in community based activities or programs. While both programs have grown and enjoyed individual successes, merging the programs will enhance coaching resources, facilities, and philosophies to provide North Charlotte a powerhouse swimming partnership. The expansion also gives the community the greatest value in, and most convenient access to, student athlete development.
Hubert Williams will continue as CEO, while Mark Minier will serve the program as Director of Swimming Operations. Coach Williams stated, “We are very excited to bring the two families together. It will not only give us a stable practice facility and the ability to expand our team, but also a location in Huntersville where we can host competitions for our members and guest teams.”
Mark Minier, Director of Swimming Operations, commented “We can’t wait to compete as one team. Bringing the rich history of NOMAD together with Sailfish Aquatics enhances our ability to build a program focused on developing student athletes and serving the community. We look forward to the opportunities that blending our families will produce”.
The NOMAD Aquatic Center will provide the team with an additional 10 lane 25 yard x 8 lane 25 meter pool; and a separate warm down/lesson pool. Recent upgrades to the pool and fitness center give the expanded team a great environment to train. Team placements are available and can be set up through the team website, www.sailfishaquatics.org
