TRAINING GROUPS

These are the currrent training groups offered by the Western Mass Aquadogs. We will be adding additional training groups as the progam grows.

AquaPups 
Aquapups is a program is for young athletes who love the water and are interested in swimming being their sport. We teach basics of competitive swimming such as the 4 strokes, racing starts, flip turns, and various other techniques that may not be focused on in a traditional lesson program. Swimmers who have a basic understanding of freestyle and backstroke are ready to begin training with this group.

Red
The Red group is for swimmers who have a basic understanding of the 4 competitive strokes and are ready to begin moving from the instructional setting and into more focused training sets. Swimmers in the Red group may begin competing in USA Swimming-sanctioned competitions.

Black
The Black group is for our most advanced competitive swimmers, who have achieved a strong understanding of the 4 competitive strokes. These athletes are ready to begin advanced training sets, endurance training, and dryland exercises in order to prepare for the rigors of college swimming. Swimmers in this group are expected to attend as many competitions as possible.

NCAA
For current NCAA Division 1-3 Swimmers looking for an out-of-season resource for training and competition. We offer individualized training programs designed to compliment your in-season training, as well as the opportunity to compete in Pro Swims, Grand Prixs, and other national-level competitions.
