Aloha & Welcome to SKA!


Congrats to Coach Billy Brown for celebrating his 5th year

as Head Coach for Swim Kauai


Swim Kauai Aquatics (SKA) was founded in 2005 to teach swimming skills and proficiency for children and adults on Kauai.  The club encourages physical fitness and competition through USA Swimming organized events.  SKA teaches swim technique, strokes, discipline through conditioning and goal setting, fun and teamwork.  We emphasize friendship and competition.  We are a parent-run 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization coached by certified professional coaches.  We swim at the YMCA `Ohana Aquatic center in Lihue.  We  support the YMCA learn to swim programs and other water sports like water polo, diving and ocean swimming.  We also sponsor high school swimming and we are a USMS registered (masters)program.  In 2012 we registered 105 swimmers for the 2013 season!  JOIN US!
