Matt Biondi is one of the legends in the history of competitive swimming, with nearly a dozen Olympic medals to his credit across three Olympic Games (1984, 1988, 1992). He’s a former world record holder and was one of only two people in history to challenge Mark Spitz’s record of seven gold medals in one Games.<\/p>\n

Biondi will bring his decades of experience in the pool to a special clinic at the Crow Canyon Country Club in Danville, Calif., this Saturday. The clinic is open to all swimmers age 6-18 who have been a part of an organized swim team.<\/p>\n

The first session begins a 1 p.m. for athletes 11-18 years old. The second session for swimmers 6-10 years old starts at 2 p.m. Swimmers will get in-water instruction from Biondi and participate in a Q&A with the 11-time Olympic medalist. Light lunch and snacks are included.<\/p>\n
