Houston Country Club League

How has this idea enhanced your club's operation, etc.?

The Houston Country Club League (HCCL) has taken the swim team club community to a new level by coming together and building a successful, fun, and interactive USA swim team that builds confidence, strength, agility, and team camaraderie.

How was this idea implemented, and what have been the club members' reactions?

The HCCL consists of eight to ten swimmers from each club, including Houston Racquet Club, Lakeside Country Club, River Oaks Country Club, and the Houstonian. Athletes work on strokes and practice weekly with their coaches to get ready for the USA Swim Team League swim meet. We compete in the USA and meet once per month for the months of October through May. Swimmers and coaches attend the meets and showcase their hard work against local USA swim teams. This allows us to compete in this level of competition by combining our swim teams. The HCCL has brought an incredible sense of camaraderie that our Members love.
