Performance Youth – Sprint/Form/Free Squads

Lead Coach: Stewart Park and Rui Rodrigues (Sprint Squad)

Objective

Sprint Squad will be focussed on swimmers who compete in 50m and 100m events. This squad will be balanced between work in the pool and strength and conditioning sessions. Swimmers competing in these events do not need to do a high volume of work in the pool. The work carried out must be a high quality both technically and intensity. This is accompanied by an increased range of movement and power developed within the strength and conditioning sessions.

The Free and Form groups are more traditionally structured but are divided on the swimmer’s strengths stroke wise and times they can hold within training sessions.

Within all three groups, the sessions attended are specific to the group assigned to. This is to ensure that every session attended is valuable and specific to the swimmer.

There is no longer the option to trade sessions to train with other groups within performance when you are unable to attend the assigned sessions.

Minimum Session Requirement: 6 (SPRINT includes S&C sessions)

Equipment Needed: Kick Board, Pull buoy, Hand Paddles, Snorkel, Roller, Stretch Bands, Water Bottle
