JR. TIGERS

Times: 1.5 hours, 3 - 5 times (recomended) /week, year round

Ages: 8 - 13

Coach: Assistant Coach Jeannine Malbrough

The Jr. Tigers group is the second level of competitive training for TAQ.  Stroke technique is emphasized, and aerobic training sets are introduced.  Swimmers learn to use the pace clock and develop a long term training vision.  This group is designed to produce swimmers that are eager and ready for the challenges of the next level.  Swimmers are encouraged to train three to four times per week, although five practices are offered.  Practices last one hour and thirty minutes.  Progression from the Jr. Tigers group to the next level is based solely on the coach’s recommendation.
