Senior Development
Senior Development – Development Stream
The SWAT Senior Development group is the top group of the Development Stream, whihc is the "Learn to Train" stage of our team. This group serves two purposes: to give current SWAT swimmers a place to conitnue to develop and master the skills that will get them to the top of AA competition, to give an entry point for new highschool aged swimmers to join SWAT with swimmers of a like age and ability. This group allows more flexibility for multisport swimmers. This group is structured to keep teaching swimming and racing skills. Swimmers build “Team Pride” and are introduced to the second team value “Integrity”, where the focus is to promote accountability, respect, and honest and transparent behaviors on a daily basis.
Senior Devlopment swimmers are AA qualified swimming looking to excel at the level and qualify for AAA Age Group competition.
