Coaches: Build & Program A Pool Workshop

When: September 8 & 9, 2026

Where: Rosen Centre, Orlando Florida

Tired of renting lanes, fighting for pool time, and riding seasonal enrollment swings?

The Coaches: Build & Program A Pool Workshop is a 2-day onsite, hands-on training led by Total Aquatic Programming (TAP) and select Dream Team Partners. You’ll learn how to build a sustainable aquatics business by designing programming that protects prime time, reduces “empty water,” and creates predictable revenue.

Then we translate that programming into smart facility decisions—so your pool, equipment, building layout, and even the filter/mechanical room support what you’re trying to deliver.

National Build and Program a Pool Workshop

When: February 6 & 7, 2027

Where: Grand Sierra Resort, Reno, Nevada

National Build & Program A Pool Workshop (BAP) is a practical, program-first workshop for aquatic leaders planning a new facility, expanding, or renovating. Built on TAP’s philosophy that Programming Precedes Design, BAP helps you define the right program mix, staffing needs, operating rhythms, and revenue strategy before you lock in square footage, depths, and features.

You’ll leave with a clearer plan for building an aquatic center that can run well—serving your community while moving toward cost recovery and long-term sustainability. Whether you lead a municipal, school, nonprofit, or private facility, BAP provides a framework for making smarter decisions, avoiding costly design mistakes, and aligning stakeholders around a shared vision.

Best for: parks & recreation leaders, school district operators, aquatic directors, project teams, architects/owners’ reps, and swim program leaders involved in facility planning.
