Selected athletes will receive expert coaching and will participate in both practical and educational development sessions throughout the program. Selected athletes will receive ‘in water’ training to further develop technical skills along with Sports Physiotherapist support at every session, specialised performance testing, media exposure and educational sessions such as breath work, nutrition, goal setting, and social awareness to ensure athletes also learn how to prepare themselves out of the water.
Athletes will also have the opportunity to participate in a squad camp/s, which will be at an additional cost to the program levy. These camps (often as tours outside the region) provide competition exposure, training sessions, guest presenters and a fantastic experience for the athletes to be part of a touring sporting group.
Orientation 2024 Program – Saturday 29th June
Athletes are selected from local Central Coast swim clubs and receive the associated benefits of being an athlete through CCAS in anticipation of progressing further through to state and national selection.
The following benefits will apply to those selected in the Swimming program:
To be eligible for selection, athletes need to provide evidence of time/s at a sanctioned event or events (Event, Date and Venue).
Athletes submit an on-line application form which is then assessed by the CCAS selection panel. The eligibility requirements are assessed and ALL athletes must submit evidence of performance via the on-line application.
If successful, athletes will be required to sign an athlete agreement to attend all scheduled sessions (unless a written submission is received i.e. for school event or meet).
Program Details:
The program will run from June-October 2024 with specialised skill sessions approximately once per month run by High Performance coaching staff. Sessions will be split between Hunter and Central Coast venues and a full schedule will be provided to selected athletes. Pool sessions are designed to compliment the athlete’s regular training environment, upskilling high performance attributes and best practice.
The program will also include a 6 week Strength & Conditioning gym program based on the Central Coast.
