Age: Approximately 10 and Over

Training Schedule: 8 x 1.5-2 hour practices/week

Dryland Training Schedule: 30 minutes activation before water sessions + Dryland Programming (TBD)

Competition Frequency: 1 to 2 competitions per month, including travel meets when included in schedule.

*Swimmers in the National / Provincial group are committed to the complete training schedule and competition calendar as laid out by their group coach.

Description:

Provincial group athletes begin to train for fitness while still focusing on the medley – all four strokes. They expand to more frequently include the 200m stroke events, the 400m individual medley and the distance (400m, 800m and 1500m) freestyle events. Open water options can be explored in the summer as well. As they improve they begin to work their way towards their Swim BC Divisional and Provincial Championships qualifying times. Our expectations of these swimmers are that they are able to attend all workouts, though they may also be participating in one other sport. Their roles in the club will also start to become that of a leader on top of a valuable member.

National group consists of swimmers who have Senior Open, Western Canadian, Canadian Junior Championship, and/or Canadian Senior National (Olympic Trials) qualifying times. These swimmers are now training to compete with their weekly, monthly and seasonal cycles preparing them for specific meets at the National or Junior International level. They must be committed to swimming at this point as their training is extensive and varied, and follow the program as it is laid out by the Head Coach.

Description: Age Group Blue swimmers begin to fine tune their technique for all four strokes while also learning how to apply what they learn in a competition, aiming to swim the 200m Individual Medley in less than 4 minutes. This qualifies them for the *LMR (Lower Mainland Regional) level swim meets. Extra emphasis is put on how to read sets and intervals, use the pace clock, swimming in a lane with many other athletes, and gradually exposing them to longer durations of training. These swimmers practice 4-5 times per week and participate in at least one swim meet each month aiming to qualify for the Swim BC Divisional Championships. Our expectation for these swimmers is that they are able to attend a minimum number of workouts, while also participating actively in other sports.
