Youth Swimfit caters for all swimmers of Intermediate & College age, who do not have the time or desire to commit to the high training expectations of the competitive squads.
Many of these swimmers compete in other sports such as surf-lifesaving, triathlon, water polo etc; whilst others just enjoy swimming for fitness and fun. Swimmers in this squad range in skill and experience from past Platinum swimmers to purely social swimmers. As a guideline, it is expected that swimmers in this squad could meet the distance training requirements of Bronze Squad as a minimum. Swimmers are encouraged to enter meets if they wish but there is no expectation to do so. Like swimmers in our main squad pathway, Swimfit members are strongly encouraged to enter Time Trials, attend Club Fun Nights and act as role models in their behaviour and attitude at all times.
Note: If swimmers choose to enter SwimFit, this does not mean they are unable to return to competitive swimming squads. SwimFit can be a good option for swimmers returning from injury or taking a break from the competitive swimming scene for a period of time.
