Come and train with Perth's best Rottnest Channel Swim Squad

 

Join Swim Smooth and the Team CORE for this year's Rottnest Channel Swim!

Rottnest Squad Program:

Swim Smooth together with The TEAM CORE are proud to announce their 2008/9 Rottnest Channel Swim Squad - a unique training environment for a committed bunch of swimmers!

Our Rottnest Channel Swim Program commences on Monday 6th October and will run for 20 weeks up to the event. If you are considering participating as either a team of 4, duo or solo this will be of interest to you. The cost of the program is $495.00 which includes access to any of our 13 weekly squad swims, access to the full program and a range of informational seminars as we progress through the program. At less than $25 per week, if you are already attending more than 2 swims per week, this could be a major saving for you over the summer. The program can be paid for here as too can the standard PAYG session cards (in 10, 25 and 50 denominations) which will still be in operation.

Program Outline:

As you will see below, you will not find a more comprehensive Rottnest Channel Swim Program anywhere in W.A! Our coaches have diligently compiled a training program that is balanced, progressive, challenging and highly enjoyable for solo, duo and team swimmers alike. The outline below suggests # sessions per week, which races to have a go at and also a guide to how much distance you should be aiming for each week. Rather than just hammer out endless kilometers for the sake of it though, the beauty of training with this program is the level of quality and attention to detail in each stage of the program ensuring not just the quantity of the training to get you through, but also the quality as well! See for yourself, we guarantee you won't be disappointed!

NB. Suggested number of sessions are as a guideline only.

Further details:

Please note the following:

  1. Every swimmer is advised to take one day off swimming per week. This will normally be on a Sunday, but in the event of a race falling on a Sunday, this may have to be the previous Thursday or Friday.
  2. Where a race falls on the Sunday, Monday's long session at 10.45am will swap with Tuesday's easy technique session at 4.00pm to allow optimal recovery (for those who can make this session).
  3. If you cannot make all of the suggested sessions, some of these will be posted up on our Blog or alternatively follow the suggested distance and session "make-up" from the outline above.
  4. Anyone who thinks they may have someone who'd like to assist the group by paddling with us on a Saturday morning at 8.00am for a couple of hours should email Paul.
  5. Anyone seeking help with their swim technique or has a history of shoulder problems is strongly recommended to make use of our 1-2-1 Video Analysis & Stroke Correction service.
  6. Details of our Saturday morning training routes can be found here.

Registration:

So if you want to be part of this great Rottnest Channel Swim Squad Program, please select either a 10, 25 or 50 session card from the payment page, or alternatively pay for the full program upfront with nothing more to pay until the race day and loads of savings to be made!

You can do all of that here!

We look foward to seeing you down at Claremont Pool very soon - full location details of all our sessions can be found here.
