Coaches – Our team has 6 certified coaches.

Matt Yovich

Matt has been in and around competitive swimming for most of his life.  He started at age 5 and swam through high school graduation.  He became a swim official at age 19 and officiated high school, college and age group club meets for many years.  He has also been a proud swim parent, a board member/officer, a nationally certified official and a coach.  

Matt wants swimming to be a lifetime activity for our athletes and desires for all to learn swimming as a survival skill.  He knows that the competitive swimming community is different than most sports – more collegial, collaborative and familial – and results in life-long friendships.  He gets excited by seeing swimmers attain small successes, at any level of swimming, and the confidence and self-worth that results over time.  Those successes are the result of excellent and efficient technique and hard work. Want to see him really excited? Ask him about GYAC – the Greater Yellowstone Aquatics Center project. If we build it, swimmers will come.
