- 25m Freestyle

Junior Squad
The Junior Squad is our introductory squad.
Athletes focus mainly on stroke development and introductory race skills (dives, turns and finishes)
Cadet Squad
The Cadet Squad continue with stroke development, while basic constraints-based learning activities are introduced. Cadets are familiarised with basic training habits and small fitness sets
Intermediate Squad
The Intermediate Squad refines competitive practices and provides a foundation for an enhanced training routine. The focus is on stroke improvement, skill development and medley training – with a BIG emphasis on kicking. Athletes will also begin to discuss and reflect on season objectives with their coach (eg: making their School swimming team).
Intermediate athletes (in years 7 and above) are also able to access our Strength and Conditioning Program on Tuesday and Thursday mornings (subject to discussion with coach).
