Swim & Dive Program Outline


Pre Comp:

Pre-Comp is designed as a stepping stone from the lesson program to the Swim Team. Athletes need to be able to swim 25 yards freestyle before trying out for Pre-Comp. The coaches will introduce the swimmers to skills needed for competitive swimming, as well as help develop endurance and technique skills.

Expectations: 2 practices per week

White:

First level of competitive swimming here at Cottonwood CC. This group is composed primarily of our 8-under swimmers. These swimmers have legal Freestyle and Backstroke. This group will emphasize stroke development and endurance. This group refines and builds upon fundamentals while introducing more advanced drills and efficient technique. There will also be a strong emphasis on developing and refining competition skills. Some specific skills being taught will include: legal technique in all four strokes, competitive turns, competitive starts, interval training with a pace clock and an introduction to training sets. Basic dryland routines will be incorporated each day before/after we swim to increase basic athleticism.  Athletes need to wear a t-shirt, shorts and gym shoes over their swimsuit for dryland.

Expectations: 3 practices per week, 3 meets per season

Green:

This program is designed for swimmers striving for next level competitive swimming, There will be a strong emphasis on stroke mechanics and refining competition skills with the addition of interval training and conditioning.

Expectations: 4 practices per week, 5 meets per season

Black:

This senior team is composed of our top swimmers that exhibit a high level of performance and practice ability. While the majority of these swimmers are high school age and older, some younger swimmers may be invited to be on this team due to their ability and maturity levels.  All Senior Swimmers are expected to be mature, dedicated, responsible, and reliable. Senior Swimmers should be highly motivated and equally organized, setting the bar for our team. This group has advanced technical skill and demanding training that prepares these swimmers for competition. At this time training volumes and intensities are increased. Swimmers are expected to attend all workouts at this level, as practices are designed specifically for individual race and stroke needs.

Expectations: 90% practice attendance, 6 meets per season
