For those swimmers competing in Club Graded galas and are working towards Stage 6 and Stage 7 of the ASA’s Competitive Swimming awards (see criteria at foot of page)

Lead Coach: Josh Crosley

Overview

Sessions are 30 minutes long, and are in deeper pools where we can practice dives and turns.

Swimmers in the Cygnet Squad are expected to:

• Have a goal of swimming in Norwich Swan Graded galas

• Be on poolside ready to swim at least 5 minutes prior to the start of the session to warm up effectively, be briefed on the session, and receive any relevant news and information

• Take responsibility for their own training and development

• Be 100% committed in every training session

Squad Training Times

Performance Reviews

Performance reviews will be carried out every six months to monitor swimmers’ progress and assess their suitability to move up to the next squad.
Swimmers who are not meeting the criteria and expectations for the squad will be informed of this, and have a further three months to reach the required standard.  If swimmers are still not meeting the squad’s criteria after the three months, they will be moved to a more appropriate squad for their abilities and ambitions.

• Annual fees for 2010 - £25 per year (or £40 for families) for membership and insurance (payable in January or upon joining club)
