2025 Coaching Staff
We have secured our 2025 Encore Season Coaches and are excited for the season to begin! We currently plan to have 7-8 Coaches on our Staff, inclusive of our Head Coach Aidan & Assistant Coach Ruby. You can find bios of our 2025 staff below and we will be actively updating them as we receive them from our staff.
If you may be interested in a coach or volunteer position for the 2025 Season, we still may have a need depending on our team size. Please reach out to Michelle (President), or email info@encoreswimteam.com.

We are pleased to share that Aidan Hemming will be our Head Coach for the upcoming 2025 Season. Aidan spent 4 years swimming and playing water polo competitively in high school, followed by one year in both at West Valley College. He was Head coach at Encore in 2024, the Santa Teresa high school for two years, and is First Aid, Water Safety & Lifeguard Certified.
"Coaching has been an amazing opportunity for me to share my passions and knowledge with the next generation of athletes. I am looking forward to watching Encore swimmers develop their skill sets and increase their excitement about being in the pool as the season progresses."

Ruby is returning for her 5th year of coaching with Encore. Ruby joined Encore when she was only 6 years old in 2011! Ruby is a naturally gifted athlete who also plays water polo for Santa Teresa High School and is the Varsity's team captain. Ruby was part of the 2023 graduating class at Santa Teresa High School and this marks her last summer as a swimmer with Encore. She was a varsity starter on the water polo team as well as a varsity swimmer on the swim team. She specializes in swimming butterfly and loves helping to teach kids the stroke. Ruby loves working with all age brackets but especially enjoys the older brackets as she is able to break down drills and technique to help every swimmer advance. She is super excited for this season to start and to see all the swimmers and their families again!

This season is Bella's third season with Encore Swim Team but she has been around swimming for years. Bella has always had a love for swim and comes with 4 years of swimming with Osprey Aquatics. Bella specializes in breaststroke so for those swimmers that are looking to improve that stroke specifically - you know who will be more than excited to help! Bella is not only a coach with Encore but also works as a lifeguard at her community pool. Outside of swimming, Bella is a competitive golfer. Bella just graduated from Santa Teresa High School and will begin her higher education journey at Pepperdine University majoring in Psychology/Pre-Law this Fall.

Aaron joined Encore when he was only 10 years old! This is Aaron's second year as part of the coaching staff but has been a volunteer coach with Encore since 2018. Aaron is a year round swimmer with Quicksilver Swim Club and also swam for Pioneer High School's Varsity Swim Team his freshman & sophomore years. Aaron specializes in breaststroke but also races fly. Outside of swim, Aaron keeps active with Kendo which is a traditional Japanese martial art. Kendo is a style of fencing with a two-handed wooden sword. Aaron travels for national meets to compete in Kendo! Aaron is a very dedicated athlete and is enjoying coaching with Encore!

This is Parsa’s first season coaching at Encore Dolphins, but he has been a part of the team since he was 5 years old! He has always had a strong passion for swimming, continuing to develop this passion by joining his high school swim team, working as a lifeguard and teaching swim lessons.
A fun fact about Parsa is that his favorite stroke to swim and teach is butterfly! He cannot wait to have so much fun with each and every one of the swimmers this season.
