If it is stroke correction or a competitive edge you are looking for then our squad program is the one for you.

With sessions all year round, our Head Swim Coach and our specialised team of coaches are trained to build strength and endurance tailored to each child.

Competitive swimmers have the opportunity to compete at local, regional, state and national events.

Prices

Prices vary depending on squad level and the number of training sessions per week. There is also no charge for adults spectating at squad training.

Assessments and progression

Students are assessed by our qualified swimming instructors before joining squad and during regular lessons.

There is no set time frame for level progression as learning times differ between students.

Once the relevant squad skill level has been achieved, our instructors will let the student (or parents/guardians) know, you're ready to proceed to the next squad level.
