Development Squad (stages 8-10)

This squad is for swimmers who have completed Stage 7 of the Swim England Learn to Swim Framework and are aiming to get into the Competitive Squad. The training is planned to raise levels of performance, teach the skills required for competitive performance and improve technique.

There is a strong focus on consistency, stamina and perfecting starts and turns. Swimmers will also learn how to warm up, cool down, stretch, relax, and focus. The emphasis is on training but there will be opportunities to compete in galas and meets.  Once strong techniques are in place, swimmers can progress onto our competitive pathway.
