Frequently asked questionS

Where can I find information about each squad?

Refer to our squads page.


How often are swimmer's assessed?

Each swimmer's suitability for their level is monitored on a regular basis. When it is clear that a swimmer is ready to progress, a notice will be sent by email advising the new level and the start date.

In some instances we will invite a swimmer to complete a trial in a new level before they progress to that level.


How often do swimmers change squad levels?

This depends on many factors such as age, skill level, speed, focus, attendance, goals, attitude, performance, etc. 

It should be noted that there are subgroups within most squads too, so swimmers will be placed in the most appropriate lane based on the specific set being performed.

To check the duration a swimmer will typically be in a particular squad, refer to the ‘pathway’ section in the squad links above.
