The Training schedule will follow the principles of the SASA Long Term Athlete Development Pathway from Stage 2 Swim Skills: Building Technique to Stage 5: Training to Win.
Each squad has a minimum training requirement and all swimmers at expected to adhere to the minimum training sessions.
Whilst the club enforces the minimum training requirements, all swimmers are encouraged to attend additional sessions.
As swimmers progress through the squads the minimum training requirements increase and all swimmers who enter into the squad structure , and their parents, should be aware of this , and reflect at the outset whether they have the time and commitment to attend the necessary training sessions.
Swimmers are assessed twice yearly, in March and September, to a set of documented performance criteria, which are tailored to each squad.
The detailed assessment criteria can be found in the Squad Booklet, a copy of which you can get from your coach.
