Senior Competition


Coach: Jorge Silva(email) 

Overview: The Senior Competition program is the premier group within the Hydro-Sonic organization. Swimmers in this group have chosen swimming as their primary form of extracurricular activity, with the goal of qualifying for top level regional and national meets. As part of Senior Competition training, athletes will continue to focus on stroke technique, as well as on increasing the intensity of workouts.

Making all practices per week is HIGHLY recommended. In addition, all swimmers in the Senior Competition program are expected to attend all PVS meets in which TIBU participates. Swimmers will be expected to train consistently throughout the year in order to attain their personal goals. This group requires a strong commitment; athletes must have coach’s approval to join. Swimmers who cannot meet the commitment level of this program should instead enroll in our Senior Prep group. 

Target Meets: Sr. Champs, Sectionals, Jr. Nationals

Meetings: regularly scheduled group meetings, parent education meetings, and conferences (swimmer/parent/coach)

Nutrition: education provided on what is necessary to reach peak performance

Goals: swimmers enrolling in this group must have a set of detailed goals
