Swimming Squad

The Pedare Swim Squad allows swimmers to be involved in a competitive swimming environment.  Being a part of the Swimming squad will teach students the importance of hard work and discipline, while developing their technique through a variety of training methods.

Uniform Requirements: Swimwear, Goggles, Swim Cap, Fins (optional)

Absences

Where possible, students should take personal responsibility for advance notification of absence from training or non-availability for matches by emailing the team manager with appropriate explanation.  Additional notification from the parent is always appreciated but we like the students to take responsibility in the first instance.

Parent Support

Please support your child and the College by ensuring your child’s attendance at training and games and by attending matches yourself whenever possible.  Please also assist the coach by timing, umpiring or supervising when necessary.  Your assistance in being on time when dropping off and picking up from venues is appreciated.
