Placement in practice groups is decided by the head coach of Riptides. No swimmer will be placed in a group for convenience of schedule. Placement into skill groups is performed with only the swimmer's best interest in mind.

 

 

Dry Land Practice

Dry land practice is held twice per week for Green, Red, and Blue Groups and is meant to supplement the swimmer's development. Swimmers should wear workout clothes and sneakers to dry land practice. Swimmers are allowed to wear their swim suit under their clothes if they prefer. The number of dry land practices each swimmer may participate in each week is reflected in their commitment level.

 

Silver Group Dry Land Practice

Silver Group dry land will take place daily as part of their practice time.
