Butterfly is introduced.
Limited meets should be attended.

Silver
Basically swimmers ages 8 to 12. This group is for more advanced 9-10 year olds and most 11-12 year olds. Emphasis continues to be placed on technique; however, training becomes a much larger component of this group. Attendance at 4 workouts (minimum) a week is recommended.

Pre-Gold
Swimmers (skill appropriate) who attend swim meets. This is a competitive training group, so all four strokes are emphasized and workouts are given. Swimmers are expected to attend swim meets. NOT an exercise class- must make a commitment to compete (min 4 workouts/week).

Gold
Swimmers ages 11 and up. This group is for advanced 11-12 year olds and 13 and ups. Emphasis definitely on training, while maintenance of technique remains a primary focus as always. Attendance at least 5 workouts (minimum) a week is required. There is a minimum standard to qualify for this group. Dry land is included with this group.

Platinum
Swimmers ages 12 and up. This group is for advanced 12 year olds and 13 and ups. A more rigid dry-land exercise program is required as well as at least 6 workouts a week. There is a minimum standard to qualify for this group. This is for swimmers qualifying or striving to qualify for State, Far Westerns and Sectionals.

**A Pre-Swim Team Training Class is offered for those swimmers not yet strong enough to make the White group standards. (Generally 5-6 yr olds.) It is intended for these swimmers to graduate into the White level of our swim team. Swimmers are expected to swim one length (25 yards) of the pool by the conclusion of this class.
