SWEEP Swimming Academy · Cairo
SWEEP is a racing squad in Cairo, for swimmers who want to get faster. We spend our time on technique, because that's where the speed comes from, and our swimmers race most weeks of the year. Your first session is free.

The academy
SWEEP is for people who want to get seriously fast without the noise. We coach from evidence. We keep the deck quiet, we write every set for a reason, and nobody swims junk metres to fill a clock.
We film your races and log your splits and stroke rate, so a correction is something you can see rather than something you are told.
We fix the stroke before we add the metres, and we keep fixing it all season.
You race most weeks of the year. Training is built backwards from those races.
Nobody shouts here. The work is hard, and a swimmer is allowed to try something new and get it wrong.
Programs
Foundations and first races. We teach through games and take the technique seriously.

Squads · ages 14+
Most of these swimmers race short and fast.
Pacing, and holding the stroke together when it hurts.
Red and Blue are the competitive heart of the academy. They train the full week, five evenings and a Friday afternoon, and spend the season trying to out-point each other for the squad title. Juniors and masters train in the same water, and the strongest of them earn a lane here. It keeps training honest, and it's half the fun of being here.
Open to trying something new, and to getting it wrong on the way.
We start with the head: a swimmer who will try, fail and try again is one we can coach
We study your racing history and watch you swim. Best events, honest starting point.
Technique first. We fix the stroke before we add the metres.
Splits, stroke rate, video, recovery. Every correction has something behind it.
Splits, stroke rate, effort and recovery logged all season
Parents can open the app and see progress any day
Most weeks of the year, filmed. That includes events you have never tried.
You watch it back with a coach, and the next block is written from what you both saw.
We film you and show you the footage in the same session
The deck team
Every coach here swam competitively, and some of us raced for Egypt. Most nights the whole team is on deck.
Our story
Our head coach spent years swimming volume nobody explained to him, picking up injuries and results that never matched the work. SWEEP is the academy he needed then: every set has a purpose, and the swimmer is told what it is.
