Program Objectives: Junior 1 is dedicated to nurturing a competitive mindset among participants. While our focus is on preparing swimmers for various levels of competition, it’s important to note that engagement in competitive events is voluntary. Our aim is to foster and encourage a competitive spirit without imposition.
Training Commitment: Participants are encouraged to commit to a minimum of three weekly sessions, with an ideal goal of exceeding four sessions per week. This consistent training regimen is pivotal in developing the requisite skills and endurance essential for competitive swimming.
Gear Requirements: Enrolled swimmers are expected to have their personal swimming gear, including a Finz cap, goggles, short fins, and a board. For those seeking paddles to enhance stroke proficiency they can be purchased from Finz directly, Coach Nikki is available to offer recommendations and advice.
Disclaimer: Please note that some of these spots will not be available unless we have a minimum number of swimmers per session.
Term:
Autumn Term starts on the 30th of September till the 21st of December 2024.
Price:
The price for all swimmers is €450 for all sessions (6 sessions per week).
All payments are non-refundable. Discounts are offered for parents with more than one swimmer in the family. Kindly contact us for more information on such discounts.
