Build
Athletes in the Build development stage learn to focus on the foundational skills of the four individual medley strokes while developing strong fitness and swimming IQ. Swimmers with a strong background from swimming lessons or summer swimming will find this entry to the team a good place to start if they do not have all the competitive skills proficiencies yet.
Each group in these programs have specific requirements, including coach recommendations based on skills, fitness, and commitment to regular practices, competitions, and other team events.
