Details for winter 2025 maintenance swimming will be shared in September once we have confirmation of our pool schedule and coaches confirmed.
Overview
Our summer competitive season runs from May to August. During the fall and winter, swimmers can maintain their skills by swimming twice a week with either the Pre-Competitive Maintenance Program or Competitive Maintenance Program that starts in October and runs until April.
Winter training provides stroke correction to keep swimmers conditioned in the off-season and continue developing muscle memory for correct stroke technique. There is no competition during the maintenance season.
The Winter maintenance program is limited to two (2) hours per week ensuring our swimmers are abiding by the BCSSA policy to maintain their eligibility as summer swimmers. Swimmers who train more than 2 hours per week with a coach will become “O” category swimmers the following summer.
