J SQUAD

J Squad is the entry level training group for Maryborough Swimming Club. This group targets stroke development, general physical conditioning, team work, introductory pace clock work, and introduction to club level swimming and fun.

O SQUAD

The next level training group is O Squad. This group is considered as the intermediate training group. Objectives for this squad are stroke technique, training etiquette and procedures, physical conditioning, introduction to competitive swimming, and fun.

RECREATIONAL-SOCIAL SQUAD

S Squad or Social Club has undergone a change over the last season. This program is designed for the older swimmer who enjoys swimming and the healthy lifestyle that swimming provides but do not want the pressure and tough training that competitive swimming requires. This squad has no minimum attendance requirement, nor does it have any expectation on performance.

HIGH PERFORMANACE SQUAD

High performance as the name suggests is all about getting results in the competitive arena of swimming. Swimmers are in this program because they wish to compete at state level or higher. Swimmers in this program sign individual working contracts which contain information about training attendance, meet schedules, training requirements, and anything else that commits the swimmer to reaching their goals. This squad stands for commitment, perseverance, and courage. While HPS is results orientated, the overriding goals of fun, team work, and enjoyment of swimming still apply. This program is about swimmers maintaining a balanced lifestyle. School work takes a very high priority. Maintaining grades and attitude are school are just as important as the swimming.
