Autumn Swimming Clinics

Ages 3+ Years

Beginner Level (SW1B to SW1A, Ages 3-7)
Sharks swimmers aim to achieve water confidence and awareness through repetitions over a consistent period of time. Children will learn breath control, floating, and arm movement, streamlined kicking, kicking on a board, submersion drills, reflex action, and survival skills. The coaching team teaches lots of kicking drills to develop a very strong “motor” for both freestyle and backstroke. Comfortable, well-balanced head and body positions are taught at the Beginner Level.

Improver Level (SW2 to SW2A, Ages 5-9)
The focus is also on short-distance drills to achieve straight arms, super-stretch freestyle and backstroke, and advanced deep water awareness activities. Correct side breathing technique in freestyle is now taught and now that children have perfected a streamlined head and body position. More backstroke drills and breaststroke kicks are introduced. The coaching team will slowly start longer distances with focusing on efficient stroke technique.

Advanced Level (SW3 to SW5, Ages 7+)
With a good foundation in freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke techniques, the coaching team will introduce advanced stroke technique drills and start distance swimming. Butterfly skills and drills will be developed while race dives, turns and push-offs are further advanced. Maintaining an excellent stroke technique and introducing the squad works to be ready for the competitive level.
