Competition Development
Training Group Information
The Competition Development group is for swimmers who are continuing to develop their technique while being introduced to speed and aerobic energy systems.
Sessions have a strong technical focus, with particular emphasis on developing the foundations required for successful competition, including starts, turns and finishes.
Swimmers begin to practice and refine race skills while developing the confidence, competence and training habits needed to prepare effectively for competition.
Squad placement is not determined solely by the level of competition for which a swimmer may qualify. As swimmers progress, they may achieve qualifying times for higher-level competitions but will be placed in the squad that best meets their age, development, individual targets and training needs.
Placement and continued membership are determined by the Head Coach and Assistant Head Coach.
Minimum Gala attendance: 2 per year.
