Squads

Swimmers completing Stage 7 or above lessons will be assessed to join our club in a squad that suits them best to ensure the optimal level of enjoyment and development.

Academy 1 - Training focuses on technique, introducing racing elements to prepare swimmers for longer and more often training sessions. Training once a week for up to 45 minutes.

Academy 2 - Training focuses on technique, introducing racing elements to prepare swimmers for intra-club competitions (Club Championships) and fun team galas with other clubs. Training twice a week for an hour each time.

Junior -  Continues the stroke and race technique work, introducing some longer distances, training three times a week for an hour.  In addition to Club Championships and fun galas, most swimmers in this squad are ready to compete in Open Meets.

Intermediate - Swimmers build their endurance while maintaining stroke technique work. Intermediate swimmers will be targetting County qualifying times, training four times a week for between 1 - 1.5 hours.

Advanced - With a solid foundation of technique this squad focuses on training energy systems as well as continued skill and technique training. Advanced swimmers will have County qualifiying times and some will be aiming for Regional times. This squad will train up to 6 times a week for up to 1.5 hours per session. Some swimmers may also take part in our age appropriate land training sessions.

Performance - This squad's training primarily focuses on preparation to compete in County, Regional & National events throughout the season. These swimmers train up to 7 times a week for up to 2 hours per session. Some swimmers may also take part in our age appropriate land training sessions. Our valued club captains and poolside helpers (who assist with the Academy squad) train with these squads.

Masters - experienced swimmers who train in sessions alongside Performance/Advanced up to 3 times a week.
