GOLD GROUP The Gold group focuses on the development of a complete competitive swimmer, both mentally and physically. Swimmers in this group practice in a competitive, group-based environment. This group emphasizes endurance training, while still focusing on the importance of technique. Swimmers are encouraged to attend every practice. All swimmers need to show their commitment to the group in training and competition. Coaches in this group recognize the hard work given by young swimmers in this age bracket and reward them with game days and fun exercises sometimes, but more often enough, more hard work. Practices: Practice is offered 5 to 6 times a week for 2 hours, with an attendance goal of 5 or 6 practices a week. More information on practice times can be found under the Resources tab.
