Squads

Highly regarded, Norwood Swim School’s squad program aims to make Olympic dreams come true!

The squad pathway to elite National and International competition is carefully planned with strong emphasis on quality rather than quantity.  Our squad swimmers gain ability and confidence through a variety of activities which include internal and external competition, dry land training, school holiday squad clinics, strength and conditioning sessions, specialised training sessions plus much more!

Squads for all swimming levels

Whatever your swimming aspirations, and whatever your current ability, at Norwood Swimming Club, we work hand in hand with Norwood Swim School to ensure we provide squads for all abilities, from those ready to compete nationally, to those who are currently competent swimmers without any formal training. Our squads include:

Training Facilities

Our squads train from one time a week for the beginners’ squad to up to 8+ times a week for our national and high performance squads.

Training for the beginner squads occurs at Norwood Swim School’s purpose-built facility situated at 273 The Parade, Beulah Park. As you progress through to the higher squads, training occurs more frequently at Payneham Swimming Centre, Felixstow.

Squad Criteria

Swimmers making their way through the squad ranks may wish to understand the criteria they need to accomplish to be promoted to the next squad.
