JUNIOR SQUAD
STATE DEVELOPMENT SQUAD
SENIOR SQUAD
The club has four main training groups. Upon joining the Ivanhoe Neons Swimming Club, you are allocated a group. To participate in squad training, all swimmers must be members of the club. Joanne Love can arrange tuition through her swim school for swimmers not suitable for squad training.
Upon allocation of your squad training group, swimmers can attend any of the listed training times. Some members will be required to change groups, at Joanne Love’s discretion.
All swimmers commence squad training in our Junior Squad. State, Senior and High Performance Squads are for those swimmers who are competing at State and National Level. Swimmers in these squads train much harder and for more hours each week. Promotion to our higher squads requires dedication and is not given easily. However, any swimmer can reach this level and should strive towards it.
All sessions are held at the Ivanhoe Grammar School pool unless stated otherwise. Training times for all squads are subject to change thoughout the year and any changes are notified in the newsletter and by e-mail. Holiday training and weeks off are again notified in the monthly newsletter and by e-mail.
This is the first of the competitive squads, so naturally the emphasis is on refining basic training and technical requirements for competitive swimming. We encourage all swimmers to attend at least two, preferably three sessions per week, so as to gain the most benefit
