Job Description

The Regional YMCA of Western Connecticut is seeking an enthusiastic, experienced, and passionate Director of Age Group Swimming / Head Age Group Coach to lead the development of our 14 & Under competitive swimming program while overseeing our growing Masters Swimming program.

This is an exciting opportunity for a coach who is committed to athlete development, staff leadership, and creating a positive team culture. We are looking for someone who values long-term swimmer development, believes in building relationships with families, and enjoys mentoring both athletes and coaches.

As a key member of our coaching leadership team, you will work closely with the Senior Aquatics Director to continue the tradition of excellence that has made the Makos one of Connecticut’s premier YMCA and USA Swimming programs.

What We’re Looking For

We’re searching for a coach who:

With over 150 USA registered swimmers, our team has consistently placed in the top tier at the CT Age Group Championships and has produced numerous YMCA National Qualifiers and YMCA All-Americans. Our year-round training facility features a 6 lane 50m pool with moveable bulkheads that allow us to train LCM, SCY and SCM throughout the year. An air structure is constructed over the pool for the fall, winter and early spring months, and we enjoy the fresh air and sunshine in the late spring and summer season.

You’ll join a collaborative coaching staff with decades of experience, dedicated to excellence, character development, and helping every swimmer reach their full potential.

If you’re ready to inspire the next generation of swimmers while helping shape the future of a successful and growing program, we’d love to hear from you.
