Getting into Racing
Swim Meets give swimmers the opportunity to put into practice all those things the coach has been training them to do. For many swimmers, the swim meets are the ‘fun’ bit of swimming.
There are 3 main types of meets that you might be involved in.
-
Club Meets
-
Interclub Meets
-
Regional and National Meets
Initially, we suggest taking part in a Ready to Race session and then a Need4Speed. If you're unsure which meets to enter into, please ask your coach for advice.
