Intermediate Club Squad

Intermediate Club Squad caters for swimmers in our performance squads that may not be able to commit to the full training load expected in other squads. Intermediate Club Squad is for swimmers aged between 12-15 years, however, ability level will be taken into consideration. Like Junior Club Squad, swimmers in Intermediate Club Squad are encouraged to compete but this is not a requirement. Intermediate Club Squad provides a more relaxed training environment in which swimmers can still work toward improving skills, and fitness. The flexibility involved in this squad provides an excellent opportunity to continue training without the pressure of committing to a full programme.
