Non Competitive

Group 2 - Learn to Train Group

Our Learn to Train group builds on the basics, developing strong technique in all four strokes and introducing swimmers to the excitement of competition. Swimmers in this group train three times a week, with typical ages being 9–12 for boys and 8–11 for girls.

A key goal at this stage is completing a 100-metre Individual Medley (IM) legally—one length of each stroke, back-to-back. Competing in even a single swim meet can spark a love for racing that often stays with swimmers throughout their time in the program.

Coaches work closely with athletes to refine their technique and build good training habits, ensuring they’re ready to smoothly transition into the next group when the time comes.

Swimmers can choose to take part in more than one swim meet, but will need to register as a competitive swimmer with SwimBC through the club. If you have any questions about this please talk to one of our coaches or contact our registrar (registrarcontactctsc@gmail.com).
