Our Regional Squad program is designed to take training to the next level, equipping swimmers with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in competitive swimming. This program primarily focuses on teaching swimmers how to train effectively, introducing them to race tactics and fostering the ability to compete both as individuals and as part of a team.
In the Regional Squad, our dedicated coaching team works closely with swimmers to refine their technique, improve their endurance and enhance their overall performance in the water. The program emphasises the importance of discipline, goal setting, and self-motivation, providing swimmers with the tools they need to push their limits and achieve their full potential.
One of the key aspects of the Regional Squad is the introduction to competitive swimming. Swimmers learn race strategies, develop an understanding of race dynamics and gain experience in competing against other swimmers. They are encouraged to set personal goals, challenge themselves and embrace the thrill of competition.
To ensure swimmers are fully prepared for club-level meets, we recommend attending Regional Squad training sessions 2-3 times per week. This regular commitment allows swimmers to build strength, endurance and consistency in their training, enabling them to perform at their best during competitions.
Beyond individual development, our Regional Squad also emphasises the importance of teamwork and camaraderie. Swimmers have the opportunity to bond with their teammates, supporting and encouraging each other both in and out of the water. This sense of unity and collaboration fosters a positive and motivating environment where swimmers can thrive.
