Modern experience that replaces slow, outdated systems
Unified tools that reduce admin and coach headaches
Clear pricing with no hidden fees or setup costs
Platform designed around the daily work of modern swim programs
Many teams chose TeamUnify years ago because it was the default option in youth sports. But expectations have changed.
Coaches now expect tools built for year-round, high-performance programs, not the slow, outdated workflows many teams inherited years ago. Parents expect clean, reliable websites, and admins need software that just works.
Commit Swimming is built for today’s swim environment. It’s fast, simple, and truly swim-specific, built around the workflows coaches rely on every day.
Unlike platforms that feel stagnant or slow to evolve, Commit offers a clean, modern experience that helps clubs reduce admin, improve communication, and run stronger training programs.

Parents confused by redirect URLs, broken links, and payment friction
Workout writing and planning forced into spreadsheets or external tools

Why coaches move to Commit Swimming
"If you got a problem, yo, I'll solve it.' —Vanilla Ice ... This is what comes to mind when I send this amazing and talented crew behind the day-in and day-out runnings of Commit Swimming a question or need assistance on how quickly they respond and make sure you're taken care of! 5 STARS!"

“Commit has been the most responsive platform I have used. The interface is intuitive, updates are easy to understand, and when something is not clear, they walk me through it. It is also the only platform that has truly felt automated and has actually reduced my workload. Commit listens, responds, and follows through.”

"Commit has been quite possibly the most important tool we have ever added to our swim program. It was a game changer for us to the point where I cannot imagine our program without it. It creates positive communication among the swimmers and coaches within our program, our swimmers are more prepared for practices, and Commit allows them to contribute more to their training. We are able to do so much more as a program because of Commit!"

"My experience with Commit has been excellent overall. The platform allows our coaching staff to easily access and share each other’s sets, which has become an invaluable tool for collaboration. It’s helped us build off one another’s work and ensure our swimmers are well-prepared for every stage of their competitive development.
Thank you, Calvin, and the Commit team, for your continued support and dedication"

“Commit swimming is the only platform I have used that is user friendly, with a responsive help team, and is constantly improving. If they keep going in this direction, they will be the future of team management in years to come. Every month they absorb a little more of our grind.”
Jon Siegel
Head Age Group Coach
Cougar Aquatic Team
"I just wanted to share that I have already received great feedback about our switch over to your system. Parents find the new website much easier to navigate, and the back end parent management is much more user friendly. And you definitely cannot go wrong with the practice software!"
