Torture Weeks: These weeks of extra practices helps swimmers get conditioned and prepared for our upcoming City Meet. Swimmers during their assigned age group week practice in both the morning and the afternoon. Swimmers who normally do afternoon practices may do so ONLY during their age group week. Then the following week(s) are taper weeks, less total laps, less hard sets. More focus on the simple things and racing.

After each age group's torture week, it's crucial for swimmers to taper themselves to be fully prepared for the end of the season! Along with being sure to attend practices, swimmers should be generally resting more. Spending all day playing in the sun or other energy draining things are not good ideas if they want to swim your best

June 3-July 24: Subject to change based on group sizes. 

Note:  The coaches may ask your swimmer to attend a different practice based on their ability. If a different practice time is desired, it must be coordinated with Coach Jeff.
