Prep Squad
PREP SQUAD INFORMATION
Prep Squad is a transitional and non-competitive group that helps swimmers bridge from swim lessons to the Rochester Swim Club (RSC). In this group swimmers are encouraged to attend two (2) practices a week. Swimmers will learn more advanced stroke work and important skills and drills to be successful swim team swimmers or lifelong lap swimmers.
Focal points of practices:
- Introduces lane etiquette (circle swimming, lining up, how to pass)
- Establishes positive habits (streamline breakouts with fish kicks, legal finishes)
- Further develops Breaststroke and Butterfly
- Conditions freestyle and backstroke for workout level distances
- Teaches drills, sculling, flip turns (front and back), open turns
- Leg strengthening through fin kicking

How do I register?
All registration for swim lessons is done online through Captyn. The button below will take you to the registration website. You will need to set up an account for yourself and add each swimmer as a "profile" on the account. This can be done before or during registration.
