Marlins Swim Team The
Marlins Swim Club is a professionally coached organization whose first
commitment is to the development of the swimmers in the program. We have
strived to develop a program that meets the needs and desires of any athlete
from brand new novices of any age to regional and national qualifiers. The
Marlins participate in USA Swimming sanctioned competition on the
local, regional, state and national levels as a year round team.

Age Group 1: This group is made up of athletes
who are at least 8 years old and have demonstrated basic knowledge of all four

of this group are to improve stroke and racing skills, and develop better
swim conditioning. The primary age group is 8 - 10 years old.
In order to show continued improvement and progress toward the next
practice group, swimmers should attend at least three of the four practices offered per week. Practice

Age Group 2: Members of this group have mastered
strokes, turns, and starts in all four strokes and are capable of swimming a
200-yard IM in under 3 minutes and 30 seconds. The focus of this group
will be on continued stroke improvement, race strategy, and proper training
techniques. The primary age group is 10-14 years old. Athletes should
plan to attend all five practices offered; minimum attendance is three per week.

Age Group 3: This group is for those swimmers in
grades six through eight who have demonstrated commitment to the sport by
working hard and attending all practices. These swimmers and their parents
are required to sign a contract indicating that they understand the expectations
of the group. This program will help prepare them for
advanced swimming. Practice
schedule. |
 |
Senior 1: This group is for swimmers in grades
nine through twelve who enjoy the sport of competitive swimming, but do not want
to commit to, or are not yet ready for, the demands of Senior Group II.
The main focus is to provide a conditioning and skill development program
structured towards the high school swimmer.

Advanced Swimming
 |
Pre-Senior: When swimmers work into the Pre-Senior
group they know that if they work hard they will get the best results from their
efforts. To be asked into the Pre-Senior group, a swimmer must have
demonstrated a commitment to the sport of swimming, and have the approval of the
Head Age Group Coach. The primary age group is usually 12- 14 years or
grades six through eight. Swimmers are required to attend 100% of the
available practices with few exceptions. Practice
schedule.
|
 |
Senior 2: To be in this group means that a
swimmer has set a goal to achieve the best results from his or her efforts -
that of swimming fast and possibly attaining a swimming scholarship for college.
These swimmers by now should have reached the point where they decide how much
time and effort they really want to put into swimming. To be asked into
the Senior II program, a swimmer must be at least 14 years old and have a strong
commitment to competitive swimming, and the Head Coach's approval. Swimmers are
required to attend 100% of the available practices with few exceptions.
