Overview: The Senior
Competition program is the premier group within the Hydro-Sonic
organization. Swimmers in this group have chosen swimming as their
primary form of extra curricular activity with aims at making top
level regional and national meets. As part of the Senior
Competition group athletes will continue to focus on stroke
technique as well as more intensive workouts in order to acheive
the groups overall goals.
Swimmers are expected to make a
minimum of 5 practices per week and both dryland practices.
Making all practices per week is HIGHLY recommended. In addition
all swimmers in the Senior Competition program are expected to
attend all PVS meets that TIBU participates in. Swimmers will
be expected to train consistently through the season in order to
attain their personal goals. This group will take any swimmer 15-18
ready to make the sacrifice required to train at a high level.
Swimmers who cannot meet the commitment level of this program
should instead enroll in our Senior Prep group.
