The Gold Team is for serious swimmers between 8 and 14 years old. There are four to five practices a week. Each practice session is 90 minutes in length. Swimmers are encouraged to attend at least three practices per week.
Training Focus
The focus for our Gold Team swimmers is on proper technique, competition training and preparing for senior level swimming. The practices also incorporate stroke development and analysis, as well as dry-land conditioning.
Cost
There is an annual $200 registration fee for the Gold Team swimmers. The registration fee is due on September, or when the swimmer joins CSST. The swimmers are billed monthly for $90 from September to July. In order to keep our monthly fees low, we also encourage our Gold Team families to participate in our annual fundraising event.
We offer discounts to families with three or more swimmers and other qualified swimmers.
