Swim Groups

In keeping with our philosophy of providing a well-rounded, quality competitive swimming program for young people of all ages and ability levels, the CSC Swim Club offers seven levels of professional technique instruction and training. Coaches will place your child in the most appropriate group to start. They want your child to feel successful in their group and coaches will move swimmers to the next level only when they feel the swimmer is ready to succeed at that next level.

RED TEAM

This group is comprised of novice competitors generally six to ten years of age. The emphasis in this group is to develop the fundamentals of the four competitive strokes by means drills and games. This creates an enjoyable atmosphere for instruction.

BLUE TEAM

This group is a transitional group in which swimmers move from primary stroke instruction to beginning competitive training. This group of swimmers can perform the four competitive strokes. Emphasis here continues to be on the instruction of the fundamentals and rules of competitive swimming.

SILVER TEAM

This group is a further transition into competitive training. Careful attention to stroke and turn technique is given, but greater emphasis begins to be placed on endurance and training correctly for upcoming events. Swimmers at this level are usually well into the competitive phase of their swimming. Swimmers move to this group once they demonstrate the ability to swim at regular intervals required of this group.

GOLD TEAM

Age Group Gold swimmers are those swimmers who are ready to "train" for competition and demonstrate that readiness by consistent practice habits and abilities. They also demonstrate the ability to swim at the regular intervals required of this group.

SENIOR DEVELOPMENT TEAM

This group is for the swimmer who has reached a level of excellence in training and in competition. Swimmers in this group are preparing for specific competitions and for their upcoming transition to the Senior team. This level is for those athletes who can swim at appropriate intervals and who want to challenge themselves and attend a majority of the competitions offered.

SENIOR TEAM

This group is for swimmers who have achieved a level of swimming ability that requires more intense training and faster training intervals. Swimmers at this level who have the necessary desire and dedication are provided with a training program designed for success on the national level in their age divisions.
