Overview: The Junior Developmental group is our introductory group to winter swimming. Swimmers in this group will be exposed to various aspects of club swimming, with the primary focus on stroke technique. Within the organization, we feel that with good technique, speed kinda just happens. We have had swimmers from this group make Divisionals, MCSL Coaches’ Longcourse Meet, and All Stars.
