Testimonials

"Our family joined Houston Cougar Aquatic Sports (COOG) in July 2007. It was further for us to drive than our previous team but we thought it would be worth it for great coaching. We are extremely impressed with every aspect of this organization. The coaches are truly amazing. They are experienced, accomplished and exceptional with children at all levels and ages. Never before had a coach got in the water with our children and demonstrated a technique. Never before had a coach sat down and created individual goals with my child. Before an important meet, the coach wrote him a letter about how much she believed in him and how he should believe in himself. He carried that letter around for three weeks and set all kinds of personal records and qualifying times in the next meet.

Our COOG coach is also a mentor to my children. She is a fantastic role model for them to follow as they grow through their swimming years. She cares about them and they adore her. They always want to bring Coach Amanda a treat or a special thought of some kind. COOG was a fantastic choice for our family. The families of the team are wonderful and we all support each other.

We have had an amazing year of swimming with COOG. Our children have accomplished fantastic goals-more than they ever dreamed a year ago. I truly believe that it is due to the wonderful coaches, supportive families and generally wonderful atmosphere of this team. My children love swimming-more than ever before and they are accomplishing goals at the highest level. They have very close friendships with fellow teammates-friendships that will probably last a lifetime. The best thing any parent of a swimmer could do for their children is to bring them to COOG. It is the perfect team…and the drive isn’t bad at all!

GO COOGS!"
