Senior Program

The Senior program at WSC generally involves swimmers 13 years and older. WSC enables swimmers to realize their potential by having an atmosphere geared toward competitive swimming success. Practices are based on well-established methods of advanced swimming training as well as cutting edge new ideas. All of our squads seek a blend of fun, technique, and training and the Senior and National Squads are no different. However, the primary focus is on improving swimmers to the boundaries of their talent and helping WSC become the best team we are capable of being.

 

Senior Squad:

The Senior Squad is for accomplished swimmers who have made swimming a significant part of their lives. Swimmers must be a contributing part of a dedicated, ambitious squad which is geared towards improving swimmers development in the senior events, including distance freestyle and individual medleys. This squad requires 80% attendance at practices and participation in team meets including Missouri Valley Championship meets. Practices are scheduled six days per week for two hours each practice.

National Squad:

The name National is derived from the fact that the goal of this squad is to train swimmers to compete and thrive in National competitions. The National Squad is the highest, most dedicated squad for the Wichita Swim Club. Swimmers earn the privelege of membership by demonstrating dedication, perseverence, and a passion to succeed. This squad is limited to swimmers who are prepared in terms of skills, physical training, and emotional maturity. There are six practice sessions weekly that are two hours and fifteen minutes long as well as morning practices. Attendance at ALL practices is required as well as full participation in the slate of meets and a variety of dryland training excercises.
