LEARN TO SWIM

Swimmers are taught to become comfortable in the water while learning the sport. Children should be physically and emotionally ready to learn to swim. Consistency is encouraged. Accordingly, parents play a vital role in the success of their swimmer.

JUNIOR COMPETITIVE

Junior Competitive is the introduction to competitive swimming. Swimmers must be competent in all four strokes and able to swim at least 3,000 meters in one practice session. This group will focus on further development of each stroke. Practice sets will become more challenging and swimmers can compete at the local and international level. Strength training and conditioning will be introduced at this level. Swimmers should attend practices at least 6 days per week.

SENIOR COMPETITIVE

Senior Competitive consists of swimmers who have experience swimming at the competitive level. The program is designed to enhance stroke technique, build strength and improve personal times. These swimmers must be committed to high standards in training in terms of attendance and practice intensity. Swimmers at this level are expected to maintain 90% practice attendance. Strength training and conditioning are encouraged at this level. The goal of this group is to qualify for local and international meets, i.e. Carifta, CCCAN, CISC and Junior Olympics. Swimmers should attend practices at least 6 days per week.
