ALTERNATIVE COMPETITIVE PROGRAM
Program Description
Whether you are new to competitive swimming and wanting to try it out for the first time, or are an ex-competitive swimmer, looking to maintain your skills while having a “build your own” practice schedule this program is for you. Our coaches are trained to meet the swimmers where they are at and modify their seasonal training to meet the participant’s individual goals while still providing them with challenging and fulfilling workouts.
This program follows Swim Canada’s Long-Term Developmental Guidelines while aiming to foster a life-long love for the sport.
We group swimmers into different lanes based on the particular skill being taught and each swimmer’s present comfort level with that skill. This allows swimmers to be moved easily into a more appropriate lane based on the skills being worked on in that particular practice; as well as they progress throughout the season. Furthermore, this flexible grouping system allows us to maintain a system where friends are not separated from each other, and where there is less focus placed on group placements.
