Coaches Build & Program A Pool Workshop

Title Sponsor: Spectrum Aquatics

Hosted by Total Aquatic Programming (TAP) and our Dream Team of professional providers, this workshop is built around one core principle: Programming Precedes Design.

​

If you’re planning a new pool, renovation, or trying to make an existing aquatic center sustainable, you’ll learn the real-world steps to build (or rebuild) a facility that works operationally and financially—not just on paper.

​

Who it’s for

• Swim Coaches, swim team leaders exploring a new build or major facility upgrade

• Leaders who want to stop renting water and start controlling the training environment

• Coaches who need a facility plan that is performance-driven and financially defensible 

What you’ll learn

• A clearer facility roadmap: what to build, what to program, and how to position the project

• A framework for protecting training time while creating diversified, year-round revenue

• A sharper narrative for boards, partners, and funders grounded in operations, not emotion

• Equipment and system options that affect long-term performance and cost

 

Join the Coaches Build & Program a Pool Workshop to gain the tools and guidance needed to turn your concept into a plan ready for decision-makers.
