Parent Information

Run by Pennington’s beloved varsity swimming coach, this swim clinic will teach each student the proper techniques of the four competitive swimming strokes, plus the mechanics of starts, turns and finishes. With a design to take swimmers to the next level, Coach Ward uses a holistic approach, including drills, videos, and positive reinforcement to help develop confident swimmers who are interested in reaching their individual potential! The goal of the camp is for swimmers to achieve their peak performance through a mix of technical, mental, and physical training.

Participants should have some swimming experience, but the camp can be useful for both summer swimmers and year-round competitive swimmers. Instruction will be tailored to allow all swimmers to improve their strokes!

Camp Director

George Ward is the director of aquatics at The Pennington School and has been coaching the varsity high school swimming team for over 23 years, winning over 20 NJISAA State Championships, including the 2020 boys’ state championship. He has sent numerous swimmers from Pennington to some of the top Div. I and Div. III college swimming programs. His swimmers have achieved All-Prep, All-State, Academic All-American, and athletic All-American consideration. Coach Ward is a member of NISCA and ASCA, and has certifications in WSI, USS coaching, and as a CPR instructor. He believes that through coaching swimming, he is also teaching his swimmers life lessons such as hard work and dedication. He believes that success looks different for each swimmer and that through swimming, students/athletes learn to appropriately deal with success and failure because each swimmer will experience both at some point.
