Squad System
Squads
The Club operates a Squad system
As swimmers learn new skills they progress from one squad to another. Movement from lane to lane and from Squad to Squad is determined by the current set of guidelines designed to prepare swimmers for competitive swimming. (These may differ from other teaching classes that the children may attend or know of).
These are guidelines only. Movement will also depend on situations that exist at the time i.e. age of swimmer, numbers in the lanes, specific abilities of swimmer etc. The guidelines are subject to change. See individual squad pages for criteria for movement.
