Hi All,
May I please remind you all of the expected attendance for swimmers in the Regional Squads;
9 yrs = 5/6 sessions,
10 yrs = 6 sessions
11/ 12 years = 6/7 sessions
This follows the Long Term Athlete development plan for swimming and will give you the greatest chance of successes in the future if followed.
It has come to our attention that there are a lot of swimmers not attending the required amount of sessions to keep their place in the squad. When the register is taken the amount of sessions attended by each swimmer is recorded in a spreadsheet and this information is looked at when we review swimmers places in the group. Please make staff aware if your child is ill as this will go down on the register.
If a swimmer can not attend a session for whatever reason, this should be made up where possible in the same week or in the following week by attending a different session.
Kevin, Tom, Josh, Scott & Tom B
