WRAT Practice Groups
WRAT Swim Team is a USA-Swimming swim club for children of all ages and abilities! We help your child achieve their real potential as a swimmer.
We offer 7 swim groups, based on the swimmer’s age, ability, and motivation. (see handout, below). Our program spans from introductory, recreationally-focused swimming to advanced competitive. When you join our program, your child has a place to grow to as their swimming develops, for both recreational-focused and more competitive focused kids. Coaches make the determination of which swim group your swimmer will be placed in, based on their age and ability.
Our swim groups are also designed to have the best possible swimmer to coach ratios, and to ensure that swimmers of like abilities are placed in the same groups. This helps all swimmers succeed.
Most groups have no practice "requirements" . But, like any other sport or activity, the more practices swimmers attend, the faster they will progress. We do offer multiple practice times per week across different days, to give families the flexibility they need to get your swimmer to the pool. New Swimmers can join the team at any level (they do not have to start at Beginner). It completely depends on their current swimming abilities.
In addition to all the basics of swimming, WRAT teaches swimmers values that will benefit them on a lifelong basis - both in and out of the water: teamwork, good sportsmanship, goal-setting, and discipline. Non-swimming social activities help develop a sense of team spirit and friendship among our swimmers. Quite simply - we like to have good fun while working hard!
