Bronze
The bronze group is generally the group in which Club swimmers begin. Swimmers in this group have “graduated” from swim lesson programs and/or rec swim teams. This is a great place for swimmers to gain confidence and more insight into stroke technique, as well as participate in the fun aspects of being on a team. This is considered our Developmental Group, though some previous foundation in the sport is needed. This group has an unsanctioned intersquad swim meet about once every 6 weeks, where the swimmers can see the results of their hard work and focus in practice.
