Thibodaux Regional Health System announced the hiring of aquatic swim coach Robert Fletcher. Fletcher, a former collegiate swimmer, brings to Thibodaux Regional more than 30 years of coaching experience, has produced nearly 100 All-Americans, and has seen greater than 50% of his swimmers go on to compete at the collegiate level. The
Thibodaux Regional competitive swimming program will begin this month.
Crawfish Aquatics announced the discontinuation of its operations in the Bayou Region this past March. “When the parents of the swim team approached us requesting our assistance in continuing the program, we were happy to help,” says Greg Stock, Thibodaux Regional CEO. “Through our Wellness Center, we continue to work on perfecting and expanding sports performance. We feel that the opportunity to work with these talented, young athletes through integrated sports and wellness services, such as strength and conditioning, sports nutrition, and injury prevention, will enable high performance and help them to grow and excel in their sport.”
Thibodaux Regional’s Aquatics Center pool was designed and built for competitive swimming and is equipped with advanced timing sensor technology.
