JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT

Coaches: TIBU Coaching Staff

Overview: The Junior Developmental group is an introduction to year-round team swimming where younger swimmers with a basic swimming foundation will work to develop the technique and endurance necessary to become competition swimmers. Swimmers in this group will be exposed to various aspects of club swimming, with the primary focus on stroke technique. Swimmers in this group should have met the expectations of Advanced Clinic. Within the organization we feel that with good technique, speed kinda just happens. TIBU swimmers in this group often qualify for Divisionals, MCSL Coaches’ LC Meet, and All Stars.

Target Meet(s): Meets are optional, but highly recommended (meet fees will be charged on a per-meet basis)
