BLUE

The Blue Group

Ages:

5 to 12 Years Old

Focus: 

Continued focus geared toward preparing the swimmer for longer and more demanding practice sessions, and includes starts, turns, and more aerobic base training loads. All four (Free, Back, Breast & Fly) stroke techniques and skill acquisition continue to be the primary focuses.  Swimmers develop strokes and techniques through drills, games, and demonstrations.  The technique/training ratio for the Blue Group is 80% technique to 20% training.  Blue Group swimmers are promoted to the Gold Group after meeting the criteria and only on a seasonal basis.

Competitions:

Blue Group swimmers are encouraged to participate in competitions at the coaching staff’s recommendation. Blue Group swimmers are encouraged to attend more state wide competitions as their skill levels and competitive confidence grows.
