HOW IS THE PROGRAM STRUCTURED? 
The Phoenix Swim Club (PSC) program is designed to enable each of its swimmers to systematically progress from the beginning to the elite level of performance by establishing clearly defined priorities, training plans, and performance standards for each level of instruction. Training groups are organized so that all of the swimmers in a particular group will be compatible with respect to age, training ability, and commitment levels. The emphasis in the early stages of development is placed on skill and attitude development. As the swimmers progress, a more demanding physical and psychological challenge is gradually introduced. The commitment level ranges from approximately two hours per week for the young beginner to “whatever it takes” for the aspiring Olympian. Although participation through all of the levels of instruction is the goal for every swimmer, each level will provide a valuable and rewarding experience in its own right.
