Swimming

Swimmers in the program will receive expert coaching and will participate in both practical and educational development sessions throughout the program. Selected athletes will receive up to 15 hours of ‘in water’ training to further develop skills along with special guest coaching, specialised performance testing, media exposure and educational sessions such as visualisation, 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 provide competition exposure, training sessions, guest presenters and a fantastic experience for the athletes to be part of a touring sporting group.

Selection Process

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).

Scholarship athletes are selected from local Central Coast swim clubs and receive the associated benefits of being a scholarship holder through the CCAS in anticipation of progressing further through to state and national selection.
