Thank you for your interest in Whitby Swimming.
Whitby Swimming's Precompetitive Program is designed to teach the core skills required for competitive swimming. Swimmers will learn the fundamentals of each competitive swimming stroke (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly), dives, turns and how competitive swimming practices and swim meets are structured. This is a fun and rewarding introduction to the sport.
Please note that our Precompetitive Program is not a replacement for swimming lessons and is not a "learn to swim" program. Space in the program is very limited and placement within the program is not guaranteed.
Prerequisites: Swimmers entering our precompetitive program must be able to swim 25m of front crawl, 25m on their back and be fully independent in the deep end. Swimmers must be at least 6 years old to join the precompetitive program.
Prior to registering, all new swimmers must complete an assessment with one of our coaches. Assessments take about 10 minutes and are free.
