INTRODUCTORY PROGRAMS TO COMPETITIVE SWIMMING
The Puddle Jumpers (ages 6-11) and Torrents (ages 12+) are introductory programs that will introduce the sport of competitive swimming to interested athletes. Participants need to have completed Level 3 of the swim lessons at Zatzman, Level 4 at Cole Harbour Place or be in YMCA "Swimmer"; to be ready for the Introduction program. This translates into being able to swim continuously a length of the pool on their front, swim a length on their back, kick a length with a kick board; jump in off the side and exhale under water (blow bubbles) and be ready to try new things along with listening to instruction.
Each Fall Introductory Session will run for 7 weeks. The next session start date will be the week of September 14th.
Puddle Jumpers will train: Saturdays 5:00-6:00pm and Sundays 1:00-2:00pm
Torrents will train: Thursdays 7:30pm-8:30pm and Sundays 1:00-2:00pm
Program Costs: $310.00 ($190 Registration Fee + $120 SNS Fee* )
(*Swim NS fee is non-refundable after program launches).
Full payment will be required at time of registration.
The swimmer will attend the first training session and be assessed by the coach(es) to see if they are ready for the program. If yes, then an email link will be sent to the parents for the online registration.
Please DO NOT register before attending the first training session. All swimmers will need to bring goggles, a water bottle and towel to their first training session. Once registered, swim caps will be required at all training sessions.
If your athlete is able to attend the above training times for their age group, fulfills the swimming skills prerequisites and is interested in attending our Introductory Program, please email: coleharbourhurricanesinfo@gmail.com
