Development

Once a child can swim 3 strokes confidently they will have the opportunity to move up to the Development sessions.
Newcomers are welcome to attend for a trial. Please use our "contact us" link on the home page to arrange a convenient day and time.
Training sessions are held at:
CARLTON FORUM:
Tuesdays 7.00 - 8.00pm
Wednesdays 5.00 - 6.00pm
Thursdays 7.00 - 8.00pm
Sundays 8.00 - 9.00pm
As these swimmers improve in their ability and stamina they can advance through the Development sessions and move up to the Carlton Forum Swimming Club Squad at the Chief Coaches discretion. Development swimmers are urged to do multiple weekly sessions under our multi-swim scheme - this will help the swimmer move through to squad more quickly with increased training.
Swimmers from the age of 9 years are expected to represent the Club in competitive galas, as well as having the opportunity to swim in the Clubs Championships, which are held on a yearly basis.
