BRONZE GROUP
(Training Stream)
LTAD: Learn to Train / Train to Train
Goal for this group:
The Bronze program is designed for emerging swimmers who are building the foundation for long-term success in the sport. Our objective is to cultivate a genuine passion for swimming within a supportive and positive team environment, while enhancing aerobic conditioning and technical proficiency.
Training focuses on developing skills across all four competitive strokes—freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly—as well as dives, turns, and underwater techniques. Instruction is delivered through an engaging and enjoyable learning process that emphasizes life skills such as commitment, dedication, and perseverance.
Competition at this level is celebrated as one of the most enjoyable aspects of the swimming journey. Athletes are encouraged to embrace the thrill of racing, where they can showcase their skills, challenge themselves, and experience the excitement of meet day in a positive and uplifting environment. Through friendly competition, swimmers build confidence, develop sportsmanship, and discover the joy of pushing their limits—all while having fun with teammates and celebrating personal growth.
Workouts are designed to improve training habits, reinforce proper technique, and gradually build aerobic capacity. Swimmers begin to learn the importance of consistency, effort, and goal-setting in both practice and competition.
Academic support is gently introduced, helping young athletes begin to understand the value of balancing school and sport. Coaches promote time management and personal responsibility, laying the groundwork for future success both in and out of the pool.
The Bronze program serves as a vital stepping stone toward higher levels of competitive swimming. By nurturing each athlete’s enthusiasm and skill development, we prepare them for progression into the Silver group and beyond—while instilling a lifelong love for the sport.
