Pre Squads

For more information on our Pre-Squad Programme or to book an assessment please contact our Pre-Squad Coordinator Claire Walker at pscpresquads@gmail.com.

The Pre-Squads are designed to bridge the gap between Learn to Swim and Squad Swimming. The three levels target specific areas of a swimmer's development from refining the basics of the strokes and the skills required to swim well, to teaching swimmers the specifics such as lane etiquette, turns and starts for the 4 strokes, Stroke drills to target specific parts of the swimming strokes.

Swimmers in the Pre-Squads are encouraged to attend 2 sessions a week, take part in club nights, school swimming events and may have the chance to try out Junior targeted inter club swimming competitions.
