Our Coaches

The Bernal's Gator Swim Club is led by Joe Bernal who was formerly the Head Coach of Harvard University; the US Olympics Coach in both 1984 and 1988, and the US Coach for the Pan American Games in 1991. In all, Joe Bernal has coached six Olympians. Recent Olympians include Ray Carey ('96), Scott Jaffe ('96), and David Berkoff ('88 & '92). At the 1988 Olympics, David won a gold and a silver medal and was the world record holder in the 100 Backstroke. He is the only swimmer in New England's swimming history to be an individual event record holder.

Graduating seniors continue to reach Olympic Trial, National, US Open, and Sectional levels plus entrance to renowned academic and swimming schools. This past year graduating seniors are attending such schools as Harvard, Yale, Brown, Penn and Vanderbilt.

Under the leadership of our Director and Head Coach, Joe Bernal, the experienced coaches below train our swimmers in groups structured from younger "Tailgators" to National Elite.
