SENIOR Group

High School Age Athletes

Lead Coach: Cameron Higdon ([email protected])

The Senior Group (Senior) is designed for high school aged swimmers who are committed to propelling their swimming to the next level. Senior Group swimmers must be focused on group goals, personal goals, technique development, building a training base, and racing. Stroke refinement is key in this group, as swimmers begin to experience more intense, longer workouts. Senior practices are offered 6 days per week, up to 9 workouts per week, and include drylands and weight training, in addition to the water training. Swimmers in this group will be expected to attend all meets offered (or as many as possible) and any championship meets for which they qualify.  Senior Group swimmers are expected to serve as role models for the younger swimmers and act as leaders for the entire team.

Weight lifiting is currently offered for Senior Group athletes that are age 15&over. We have a specialist on staff who designs training and coaches those athletes through that specific program. 14 year olds as well as those that opt-out of weight lifting are offered Dryland Training with their Lead Coach with light weights. 

*An exemption for a high-school aged swimmer to remain in the Junior Group may be made if the swimmer is new and requires some time to acclimate to the training schedule before entering the Senior Group.
