About Our Squads

Coaches Notes:

Below is a general idea of the requirements for all the clubs training squads. 


The coaches will make the final decision on what squad the swimmer will be involved in. 


Factors that can affect this decision could be Maturity, Age, Physical and Mental attributes. These decision is made with the best interest of the swimmer in mind. 


When first joining the club you may find yourself in a lower squad than expected – as ability to move up is demonstrated, you will be moved up.
