Performance Pathway
​
Our comprehensive Performance Pathway offers all the necessary opportunities for swimmers to reach their full potential. Our coaches are dedicated to the development of our swimmers ensuring that they are given support and guidance appropriate to the stage of their development.
​
We understand that every swimmer is different, on their own path to reaching their full potential. We make sure that we don't box swimmers in to set 'rules' where they must do certain things at specific ages, instead we make sure that the opportunities we give swimmers are appropriate to the stage of their development.
​
We value the perfromance attitude of swimmers above their natural ability and spaces in our squads are earn through hard work, commitment and professionalism (but we still have lots of fun). This ensures that the environment our swimmers are in is one that breeds success.
