ANA Synchro is the competitive synchronized swimming team of the Merrimack Valley YMCA. The team embraces the Y core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility to provide a positive and character-building youth sports experience. The team is open to girls ages 6 to 19, while offering multiple levels of instruction and competition. Synchronized swimming combines music, dance and swimming
into “the ultimate team sport”. Through the artistry and athletics of synchronized swimming and team competition, girls build lifelong friendships and skills while developing the confidence to dream big and pursue their goals. The season begins in September and concludes in June. The team competes locally in New England and travels to regional, zone, and national championship meets. Highlights of the season include our annual show enjoyed by family and friends, and our team banquet. Coached by Leah Pinette, former captain of the U.S. Olympic Selection Team, and experienced assistant coaches, the team also benefits from special clinics conducted by former coaches from The Ohio State University and other experts in the sport.
