Meet Coach Drew! 🐠
“My name is Drew Martin, and I am so excited to join the Oconee Flippers team! I am a junior at Oconee County High School and have been competitively swimming since I was 6 years old. Swimming has always been a huge part of my life, and it has helped me develop discipline, confidence, and a strong work ethic. I also have a passion for working with kids and helping them learn new skills. Outside of school, I stay involved with my soccer teams and church community. I am excited for the opportunity to help kids feel more confident, comfortable, and safe in the water!”

Student of the Month: Hendrix 🎉

“Hendrix took a couple months of lessons last summer and got restarted in lessons this Spring. He has made amazing progress in such a short amount of time. He can independently safety roll as needed, jump in and swim back to the wall, surface dive for toys in 4ft of water, and he just swam his first 25yd lap using a combination of freestyle with safety rolls and elementary backstroke, as needed, to rest and stay safe. Whether Hendrix is mastering a new skill or telling me a story in between diving for toys or kicking with the barbell, he is always working hard, having fun, and brightening up my day!” - Coach Theresa

Interview by Grady Newsource “‘We really just wanted more individual time and to build his confidence... It was our decision to head over here and check things out, and it was the best decision we could have made.’
Oconee Flippers is helping kids gain skills in and out of the water. With a growing program and student coaches, it’s quickly becoming a favorite after-school activity.”
