PRACTICE OBJECTIVES
Each practice group is designed to prepare the swimmer for the longest Freestyle event and Individual Medley event that the swimmer will face in competition. To meet the objective the swimmer will be exposed to a combination of stroke work, aerobic development and race training to best prepare the swimmer for competition.
MEETS
The Breakers participate in YMCA dual meets and USA Swimming invitational meets. Using both types of meets, our goal is to provide each swimmer with the best competitive opportunities to test their skills and achieve success in swimming. Swimmers who do not attend meets as scheduled are missing the very important part of the sport of competitive swimming.
SUMMER PRACTICES
The Breakers program is based upon developing skills and conditioning on a year round basis. The skills and conditioning that our swimmers acquire during the winter is often lost if the swimmer does not continue to practice their skills and work on their conditioning through the summer season. As such, the Breakers believe that it is important for the best development of each swimmer that summer swimming is an important part a swimmer’s development.
