The tryouts are an opportunity for TVSC coaches to evaluate swimmers’ skills and abilities to determine if they are suitable for placement for the organization’s competitive team, said the club, which boasts top high school athletes, all-American college athletes, NCAA champions, world record holders, national champions and swimmers who have gone on to medal on Olympic teams or make it to trial qualifiers.
