Mini Squad - coached by Janice McCallum
Has been designed as an introduction for young swimmers to squad training. Swimmers at this level will learn lane etiquette, the rules of racing and race skills, how to read the pace clock and working from the program board. Improving technique takes precedence over distance and each session is designed at developing their technique through small aerobic and drill sets.
Junior Squad - coached by James Critoph
Is a technique based squad where swimmers are trained through aerobically based sessions and skill and drill sets. These aerobic sets will have minimal stress which enables the swimmer to develop the foundations and rules of their technique whilst still improving their fitness levels. Race skills are improved through the education of racing and to help the swimmer compete.
Intermediate Squad - coached by James Critoph
Is a technique based squad where swimmers will be trained through difficult aerobically based sessions and skill and drill sets. The aerobic sets are designed to develop the swimmers stroke under the stress of fatigue allowing the swimmer to instill the foundations and rules of their technique for racing under pressure. Race skills are improved through the education of racing and to help the swimmer compete. Swimmers will also be taught how to train through anaerobic sessions designed for racing.
Senior Squad - coached by James Critoph
Is a seasonally designed program for the athlete where sessions will be systemically designed inline with the athlete’s goal in mind. The Senior program has been developed to incorporate two areas, sprint and distance. All athletes will participate in dry-land training sessions designed to improve their swimming. The Sprint program is power based training and also has a high skill component. The Distance program is efficiency based where athletes will be trained aerobically for the event they require.
