PENN Aquatics is a summer competitive swim team based at the Oxford Valley Pool in Fairless Hills, competing in the Lower Bucks Swim League from after Memorial Day through late July. Swimmers are grouped from Developmental through Senior across age brackets from 6-and-under to an open group, with afternoon and morning practices and evening meets. This is a seasonal swim team rather than a day camp.

★★★★★Rachel LGreat swim program! We’ve been on another teams in the past, but we couldn’t be happier with PENN. The coaching staff is truly the best in the area. You’ll receive weekly emails with updates and reminders, and at the start of the season there’s a lot going on, so just make sure to stay on top of your inbox.
★★★★★Donna RI wish the pools were a little newer; however, the staff is amazing. All of our children have been part of the lesson program, and we've had a great experience. Before coming to PENN, we tried several other swim programs, but we have been very happy here. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely care and will move your kid to the next level if they catch on faster. Cheapest lessons in the area!
★★★★★Nicholas SCoach Bethann is amazing! Her swim lessons and Seahorse Program are among the best in Bucks County. Your child will learn real swimming skills in a fun, supportive environment while building a strong foundation in the water. Instead of spending years and hundreds of dollars hopping between programs, kids in Bethann's classes gain the confidence and technique needed to become strong, capable swimmers. Highly recommended! Also, all the rumors about swimmers being required to practice every day are simply not true. The coaching staff offers practices throughout the week to provide families with flexibility.
★★★★★Sam RomanoWe have been part of the team for 10 years, and my kids swim 3–4 days a week. I personally know of some of the people who left bad reviews, and I saw many of the situations firsthand (I sti and watch practice). In most cases, if they had simply read the emails the team sends out every week, the issues could have been avoided. Rich is the head coach, and part of his job is enforcing the team rules and expectations fairly for everyone. In one situation mentioned in a review, the family arrived 20 minutes late with absolutely no equipment. Situations like that make it difficult for coaches and staff to run practices smoothly and safely. My kids have both swum for him for years, and we have always found him to be dedicated, organized, and committed to helping swimmers improve both in and out of the water. He had a talk with my swimmer about his grades and istantly we saw a Change. Love this team and LOVE this program!
★JoAnne GrattenHorrible experience. The only reason we stayed for 6 years was because it’s the only place in the area that offered practice times as we needed. I tried to reason and have a conversation with coach Rich on several occasions and the way he spoke to me was insane to say the least. If coach Rich is still there… RUN! He’s one of the rudest, unprofessional people I’ve ever encountered. The stories I could go on and on about! The stories I heard after we left. I honestly don’t understand how they haven’t shut him down yet!
