Junior 2 Group Criteria 

Athletes typically move into this group from our Jr. 1 Group. Swimmers must be able to complete the ’Goals of the Jr. 1 Group’ to move into the Jr. 2 group.

Practice is offered three days per week. Athletes may be invited by their coach to swim with the Jr. 3 Group practice if they can keep up and have perfect attendance for the week.

Swimmers are expected to attend a minimum of 2 practices a week for this group. Athletes will improve more quickly, and make more friends(which will make them want to come more!), the more often they attend practice.

 

Goals of The Junior 2 Group:


  • Swim 200 Freestyle with legal flip turns.
  • Swim 4 x 50 of each stroke.
  • Swim 2 x 100 IM legally. 
  • Perform all turns and push-offs efficiently.
  • Perform track start and backstroke start effectively.
  • Athlete is motivated to compete in swim meets.
  • Courteous to other swimmers in pool.
  • Athletes know their attitude affects how they swim and how others around them swim.
  • Develop consistent practice attendance.
