The Kirksville Parks and Recreation Department is excited to announce the Beyond Boundaries Adaptive Swim Team program, a swimming program designed specifically for athletes with physical and/or developmental disabilities. This program offers an inclusive team experience that encourages athletes to enhance their abilities in the water by focusing on strength, body awareness, endurance, and water safety.
The Beyond Boundaries Adaptive Swim Team will meet every Friday evening from 6:00 to 6:50 pm from March 21 through May 16, 2025, at the Kirksville Aquatic Center. Swimmers should be comfortable in the water and able to swim one length of the pool (any stroke or modified stroke) with or without assistance. An adult parent or guardian must be present on the pool deck during practice times. Parents or guardians are welcome to join their child in the water for additional support as needed.
Practices start with basic full-body movement, allowing athletes to get comfortable with their abilities in the water. All ages are welcome.
For more information, please contact the Parks and Recreation Department at 660.627.1485.
