DEVELOPMENT SQUADS

 

Development Program Aims:

  • To provide swimmers and coaches with an opportunity to develop their skills and help them realise their full potential.
  • To educate parents and caregivers in the structure of swimming, the health and well being of swimmers
    and pathways to coaching, administration and officials.

Development Program Guidelines:

Once a swimmer has been selected for the Development Squad Program there will be an expectation that they
make a commitment to the program. This will involve attending a minimum of sessions.
A fee will be levied for all swimmers attending the program which covers pool entry, lane hire etc.
(Note parents and siblings etc will be subject to normal pool admission).

Parents and caregivers are encouraged to get involved in the education program, this is not a ‘day care’ opportunity.
