Development A Squad - monthly cost £33

The Development A squad is a progression from the academy. In this squad the coach includes more advanced training drills, increases the distance swam in the sessions and works towards preparing them to enter open galas. Swimmers in this squad can swim up to 4 sessions a week and ideally at least twice a week for the best progression, but no mandatory sessions are set.

In this squad we want swimmers to grow, have fun and reach the potential to advance to the next level.

A test set for the next stage will be used for grading.


Development B Squad - monthly cost £35

The Development B Squad is for swimmers who have passed the Development Squad test, but do not want to commit to three sessions a week. The swimmers in this squad will be swimming alongside the Young Performance Squad and will be trained to build their stamina, improve their speed and techniques but at their own pace. The coach will use their experience to assist the swimmers gain confidence and encourage them to enter open competitions. There is flexibility in this squad and if the swimmer wants to commit more they can be moved to the Young Performance Squad after being assessed by the coach.

RADS are all about helping swimmers and making their swimming experience fun and enjoyable. This is why we have flexibility in our squads.

A test set for the Performance A Squad can be used if the swimmer wants to commit to the next level, otherwise by the coaches discretion they will be moved to Performance B Squad.
