Swim Groups

 

Copper Group

The Copper group is our beginner group which focuses on learning all the fundamentals of competitive swimming. Copper practices Tuesday thru Friday in which swimmers should attend 2-3 practices a week. The goal for this group is to teach all four strokes, beginning with freestyle and backstroke techniques, including start, turns and finishes, once we learn Freestyle and Backstroke we will move on to Breaststroke and Butterfly technique. Copper swimmers are encouraged to participate in meets once they feel they are ready.

Bronze Group

The Bronze group practice 5 days for 75 minutes a week in which the swimmers should participate at least 4 days. The goal in Bronze is to refine stroke technique and work on beginning endurance training. Bronze will start thinking about goals and how to achieve them. Bronze will also learn how to be competitive in racing. The Bronze group will participate in all competitive meets. Swimming is a sport that demands discipline, having fun, is a must in this group.

Silver Group

The Silver group practice 5-6 days for 120 minutes a week in which the swimmers should participate 5 days. The Silver Group is for swimmers that are 11 & over (or coaches discretion). Swimmers in this group are to learn how to be more competitive and learn self-discipline so they can achieve the highest success in swimming. Silver practices will become more intense by increasing the level of training and amount of training and competitive awareness. Stroke technique is a must for this group and will be focused at all practices. The Silver group will participate at all competitive meets.
