Competition Introduction
Training Group Information
The Competition Introduction group provides a welcoming and supportive introduction to a competitive squad environment for swimmers who are new to competitive swimming.
Swimmers transition from regular swimming lessons into focused squad training, with an emphasis on developing sound technique and learning the fundamental skills required for future competition.
Sessions are purposeful and encouraging, helping swimmers to build confidence while establishing the technical and physical foundations required for progressive competitive swimming. Swimmers are introduced to fundamental race skills, including starts, turns, finishes and basic race preparation.
Placement within, and continued membership of the Competition Introduction group is determined by the Head Coach and Assistant Head Coach, taking into account each swimmer’s development, commitment and suitability for the group.
Minimum Gala Attendance: 2 per year.
