Non-Competitive
Our non-competitive program is for those who want to continue their devlopement of swimming but have other main commitments outside of swimming. Non-Comp swimmers will mainly focus on their stroke development and maintaining aerobic capacity while working with the same coaching team as our competitive groups.
Purcell
Locations: Nelson, Castlegar
Ages: 8 and up
Sessions: Up to Two 1 hour sessions per week.
The Purcell group is our first group out of our non-competitive groups. Swimmers in this group are required to be able to swim 100m (4 lengths of the pool) unassisted. Purcell swimmers will mainly focus on their stroke development while also learning the basics of swim training. Purcell swimmers are more than welcome to attend one of our home meets but it is not a requirement.
Monashee
Locations: Nelson, Castlegar

Our Monashee group is made up of both competitive and non-competitive athletes. The group builds up on the Purcells by introducing more advance technique and training prioritizing stroke development and aerobic capacity.
