Green YMCA Barracudas Swim Team
PRACTICES at Green YMCA
All swimmers are expected to be able to understand and follow all safety rules and procedures.
Group placement is determined not only by swimming ability, but also listening skills, ability to remain engaged and follow multiple sets of instructions given at one time, understanding pace clock/interval times, technique, and practice behavior.
