ROCHFORD & District Swimming Club
ONE of the leading Swimming Club in SE Essex -
RADS SWIM ACADEMY
The RADS Swim Academy is open to swimmers of ages 10 years and under. These sessions swim on a Tuesday and Thursday evening.
The sessions are designed to improve all abilities with high quality qualified swimming teachers and overseen by our Head of Academy Sarah Gibson.
The RADS Swim Academy works on a grading system to enable the swimmer to progress from just dipping a toe into the world of competitive swimming to being selected to represent the club at competitions around the county.
Each month an award is given to the most deserving swimmer, handpicked by the Head of the Academy, and presented with a trophy, their picture on the notice board and an announcement made via our Facebook Page.
Academy times are:
Tuesday 6.30pm to 7.15pm.
Thursday 6.30pm to 7.15pm.
*Saturday 7am to 8am.
*(From Grade four to eight swimmers will have the opportunity to attend Saturday morning training to further improve their ability.)
RADS Swim Academy Mission Statement
Our mission is to implement and develop all swimmers to meet their full potential with swimming. At the RADS Swim Academy we want your child to have fun and meet new friends.
To achieve this, we will ensure the following:
Grading
Grading is a set of criteria aimed at ensuring improvement and consistency across the academy as well as giving the swimmer clear goals and expectations to help them reach their full potential at the club.
The grading criteria can be found on the RADS notice board.
Assessment takes place each month and is carried out under the discretion of the Head of the academy and the appropriate teacher, to ensure we are developing each and every swimmer fairly.
On succeeding of moving up to the next grade, this will be announced on the clubs Facebook Page as well as the swimmer being awarded a certificate that can be collected from the club shop.
