JUNIOR DEV

Lead Coach: Gill Dinsdale

General Age Guidance: 8-10 yrs

Pool: 2x swim sessions

2 hours of training a week

Most children entering JNR DEV should be from a Learn to swim programme.

JNR DEV is a new squad and is designed for swimmers to enhance the 4 strokes that they have already learnt from the learn to swim.

JNR DEV swimmers will be learning the raw basics of swimming, prioritising good technique over swimming up and down.

The introduction of turns and dives are implemented into this stage.

There are 2 sessions available, with Saturday being the main session. ALL JNR DEV swimmers must attend Saturday. Swimmers who’s ability meets the required standards will then be allowed to swim on a Wednesday this will be confirmed by the lead coach: Gill Dinsdale.

Swimmers are encouraged to always turn up with a good attitude, an open mind, respect to coaches/teammates, and, to HAVE FUN!
