Session structure for White
and Green Seasonal Groups
Here is a brief description of each group:
White Group - is for swimmers with little or no competitive swimming experience. These groups are the introductory level of Highlander Aquatics. The goal of each group is to emphasize stroke development and body awareness for each of the four competitive strokes. Swimmers will develop outstanding freestyle and backstroke skills through numerous drills and technique work. They also learn streamlines and flat dives. Breaststroke and butterfly are also introduced. Swimmers have the option of USA Sanctioned meets and/or local developmental meets that are offered throughout the season. Swimmers must be 5 years of age and able to swim 25 yards of freestyle.
Green Group - Swimmers either move to this group from the White group or can join into this group if they have prior competitive swimming experience. In this group, swimmers will learn the proper techniques of all four competitive strokes. They will also be instructed on racing procedures such as starts, turns and the rules and regulations involved in competitive swimming. As a part of this instruction, interval training might be introduced and used for the purpose of repetition of an acquired skill as well as for conditioning. They participate in B-C type meets and interval training but stroke technique remains the emphasis. Swimmers perform some limited dryland training, working on coordination and core strength training. Swimmers have the option of USA sanctioned meets and/or local developmental meets that are offered throughout the season.
