Club Structure - Practice Groups

757swim practice groups are set up similarly to many club aquatic teams, with developmental, age group, and senior levels in alignment with USA Swimming.

Coaches

Our coaches are committed to providing a safe environment for your child. All of 757swim’s coaches are USA Swimming certified, which includes a background check, CPR certification, and several hours of in-water and online course requirements.

Lead coaches have years of coaching experience at their practice group’s instructional level and are committed to building strong relationships with swimmers and parents alike. 757swim coaches are excellent teachers, encouragers, and role models for our athletes. Emphasis is placed on character development in and out of the pool.

"Whatever you all are doing to attract and retain these amazing coaches is so worth it. They really
are the best coaches and humans, and we are so grateful for their dedication and heart."

"Coach Jake is the best. He strikes this golden balance of inspiring the kids, making swim fun and pushing them hard to improve. My daughter
thrived with Jake this year and has progressed so much."

"Coach Amy is such a gift to our swimmers and the community. She is such a great role model for our athletes and genuinely cares. We are so grateful for her leadership."

"Kip motivates kids to push themselves. He is relatable and has fun with his swimmers. I admire
how he pulls kids for individual instruction during practice. He is an exceptional coach."

"We love Coach Emma. It is obvious she truly cares about her swimmers in and out of the pool. She is the perfect fit for the Senior group."

"Coach Lindsay is fantastic. She communicates clearly, and connects with the kids well. Both my children's coaches have been accommodating and very encouraging to my children both for swim and for life."

This is what some of our parents had to say about our coaches in a recent survey:

High School Division

Our Platinum, Gold and Senior level practice groups comprise our High School Swimming Division. Our Platinum group is our highest level group with most swimmers in the senior state qualifying time range, while Gold swimmers are committed swimmers seeking to improve to that level, and the senior group are those swimmers that are generally trying to improve their swimming skills competitively, but may not be full time competitive swimmers, such as multi-sport athletes, and those preparing for high school swimming.

Practices range from 5 days a week for Senior swimmers to 7 days a week for Platinum level swimmers, with additional sessions in the gym for strength and endurance ('Dryland' training- additional charges apply for Seniors level dryland training).

*Depending on swimmer proficiency, some swimmers not yet in high school may be assigned to these groups.

Middle School Division

Our Silver level practice groups comprise our Middle School Swimming Division, making up part of what is commonly referred to in USA Swimming as 'Age Group'. Our Silver III group is our highest level group with most swimmers in the state qualifying time range, while Silver II swimmers are committed swimmers seeking to improve to that level, and the Silver I group are those swimmers that are generally trying to improve their swimming skills competitively, but may not be full time competitive swimmers, and may also include younger 10-11 year old swimmers who are swimming at the level of older swimmers. Silver Prep is the most basic group in Middle School swimming, and is a developmental group designed to improvements in technique and stamina to permit them to advance or for those swimmers for whom swimming is not their primary sport.

Practices range from 3 days a week for Silver Prep swimmers to 6 days a week for Silver III level swimmers, with additional sessions in the gym for strength and endurance ('Dryland' training) which starts as a part of practice for the two lower groups and advances to additional off deck based activity for the highest two groups.

*Depending on swimmer proficiency, some swimmers not yet in middle school may be assigned to these groups.

Elementary School Division

Our Bronze and Copper level practice groups comprise our Elementary School Swimming Division, making up part of what is commonly referred to in USA Swimming as 'Age Group'. Our Bronze II group is our highest level group with most swimmers in the state qualifying time range or close to those, while Bronze I swimmers are committed swimmers seeking to improve to that level, and the Copper group are those swimmers that are younger or are focused on development of mastery in all four competitive strokes. Copper Prep is the most basic group in Elementary School swimming, and is a novice developmental group designed as stepping stone to full participation on the competitive year round team. It is not a learn to swim program, but rather takes those who have already shown strong familiarity with two of the four competitive strokes, and seeks to get those to competition capable times, and develop the two remaining strokes so that participation in higher levels is possible.

Practices range from 2 days a week of 45 minute practice time for Copper Prep swimmers to 4 1.25 hr practices a week for Bronze II level swimmers, with additional strengthening workouts (drylands) incorporated into those practices for Copper and above.

*Depending on swimmer proficiency, some swimmers not yet in middle school may be assigned to these groups.
