Pre-Competitive

Run periodically throughout the year     (30-45 min. sessions)

Known as the Intro program, we offer this program to our younger and least experienced swimmers.  Ideally, these swimmers have completed a series of swim lessons and have the ability to swim at least 1/2 a pool length of freestyle and backstroke.  This program will enable the swimmer to improve their swimming skills, and provide an introduction to the sport of swimming in a fun environment. 

 

Age Group 1

Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday     (1 hour sessions)

This program is intended for younger swimmers with good basic swimming skills with less than three years of competitive experience.  Concentration will be on the fundamentals of the four competitive strokes.  Swimmers will begin to develop an endurance base in addition to technique work.  In this program, swimmers will gain the skills and confidence to prepare for competition in a fun and low intensity environment.

 

Age Group 2

Monday - Friday     (1.5 hour sessions)

This program is designed for the more experienced age group swimmer with three or more years of experience in competitive swimming.  Extensive stroke technique and fundamentals of competitive swimming will be stressed.  Training sessions will focus on a progressive system of endurance development while preparing for a more advanced level of competition.

 

Gold

 

Monday-Thursday & Saturday (1.5 - 2.5 hour sessions)

 

This program is a first step into a senior level competitive swim program for swimmers age 13 and over who are willing to prepare for higher levels of swimming. While the primary emphasis is on training, there continues to be instruction in stroke mechanics and racing technique.  Training sessions will prepare these swimmers for local and regional competitions.

 

Senior

Monday – Saturday     (2.5 – 3 hour sessions)

This program is designed for swimmers who have an extensive experience in competitive swimming and have demonstrated the ability to make a serious commitment to achieving their full potential.  We will stress the establishment of proper stroke technique and solid fundamentals as a base on which we build a program of intense and diverse endurance training.  Training will focus on preparing these swimmers for an advanced level of competition.  Dry land sessions are offered in addition to the in-water training.
