Killarney offers a pre-competitive as well as a competitive program. The goal of the pre-competitive program is to introduce swimmers to Synchronized Swimming and develop skills which will prepare them for the competitive program.

To enhance individual growth of each swimmer, focusing on self esteem, responsibility, leadership and physical fitness.

To foster an environment in which swimmers, coaches and parents can actively participate in team and club activities.

To encourage the promotion and enjoyment of the sport of synchronized swimming, both as an individual and team member.

To have memorable experiences that build positive character.
