Discipline
Group
This group is designed for those swimmers who
have a solid understanding of the four competitive strokes and are
ready to begin a more involved conditioning program. The importance of proper stroke technique is
stressed; however, several sessions per week will offer challenging
training sets. Swimmers have increased
demands in workout distances and intensity as well as a commitment
to attend these workouts. This group is
geared toward 14 and unders who wish to focus their major athletic
attention on swimming. Workouts are
mandatory Monday-Saturday for the Discipline group as is attendance
at all local swim meets and sea swims.
Swimmers are also strongly encouraged to attend as many
appropriate-level overseas meets as is possible.

Dedication Group
The Dedication Group consists
of swimmers that exhibit a high level of swimming and workout
ability. These swimmers are expected to
be mature, dedicated, responsible, and dependable. The swimmers are well versed in technique and
strategy. They are also a full-fledged
training group. Generally, they have a
skill level commensurate with the USS “A” to
“AAA” Motivational Time Standards. This group is a preparation to the Commitment
group. Stroke mechanics are refined and
conditioning levels are increased to prepare swimmers for future
training. Swimmers are expected
to start to train double sessions year round and attend all
sessions each week. Training sessions
take place Monday-Friday afternoons, and Saturday morning as well
as other selected mornings throughout the week.
See your group coach for specific training
times.
Commitment
Group
The Commitment Group consists
of those swimmers who have demonstrated a skill level commensurate
with that needed to compete at a high level. Year-round, these athletes will train 8-10 workouts a week. These swimmers are willing to train at a 100%
attendance level and compete at the national and international
levels. This group is for the swimmers
who have specific achievement goals and have made a commitment to
train in order to accomplish those goals. As our more advanced swimmers increase their
commitment to swimming, we insist that they also maintain academic
excellence. Seasonal meet schedules and
training schedules must be followed.
Training session attendance is mandatory.
