The Carleton Place Water Dragons are committed to the Long Term Athlete Development Strategy as presented by Swim Canada. Our coaching staff is educated and experienced on the model.  We implement the technical plan daily through season planning, practice planning, skill development, and psychological development.  

It is important for swimmers and parents to also understand the model, as this will allow you to understand and support your athlete's development in the sport of competitive swimming. Click here to learn more about LTAD.
