What group is my swimmer in?
Group Overview
Parents are encouraged to initially determine a swimmers group based upon their age and ability level. Once the season is underway, decisions about moving a swimmer to another group are made by the coaching staff. Swimmers are asked to move to a new group based on readiness, maturity and swimming goals. Each coach will be responsible for helping swimmers improve and reach their goals. Every athlete's progress will be monitored and they will be advanced to the next group when they are fully prepared.
Jr. Dolphins
The Jr. Dolphins are our youngest group of athletes. It is mainly 5-6 year old swimmers who have little to no experience with competitive swimming. The goal will be to teach the most basic competitive techniques.
Jr. Dolphins must be water safe and able to swim 25 yards unassisted prior to registration. 4 year old Junior dolphins will be given a swim test on the first day of practice. If it is determined that they are not quite ready for the Dolphins you'll be given a full refund.
Red
The Red Group is mainly 6-8 year old swimmers who have a little experience with competitive swimming. The goal will be to continue teaching and refining the most basic competitive techniques.
A good qualifying test for red group readiness is for a swimmer to complete 4 lengths in less than 3 minutes.
White
The White group will be mostly 8-10 year olds who are proficient swimmers with a basic knowledge of competitive swimming. They should be able to swim all 4 strokes and easily complete lengths of freestyle.
A good qualifying test for white group readiness is for a swimmer to complete 4 lengths in less than 2 minutes.
Blue
The Blue Group will be made up of our most experienced young swimmers (10-12 years old), up to the least experienced 12 year olds. This group will work on clock and set mastery, flip turns, race techniques and conditioning.
A good qualifying test for blue group readiness is for a swimmer to complete 12 lengths in less than 5 minutes.
Senior
The senior group will be made up of our most experienced and mature swimmers ages 13 and up. They will focus on conditioning, competitive technique, mental acuity and focus as well as dryland training.
A good qualifying test for senior group readiness is for a swimmer to complete a 200 IM less than 4minutes.
