Junior Squads
For younger swimmers who have to date been largely in the swim school environment, the development squad provides an opportunity to experience more structured training sessions with regular frequency.
We have two development squads, depending on age and skill.

Learn to Swim program they are learning lane etiquette, learning new training thermology’s and
developing strong skills and correct technique for each of the strokes. Junior B promotes the
development good training skills and habits and establishes expectations of skills and behaviour.
