- Ability: Coaches will assess each swimmer's ability in all four strokes.
- Commitment level: Coaches want to make sure that swimmers are committed to the level of training required for their group.
- Progress: Coaches will look at how much a swimmer has improved over time.
- Attitude: Coaches want swimmers who are positive, motivated, and coachable.
- Emotional maturity: Coaches want swimmers who can handle the demands of the training and competition.
- Test set results: Coaches may also consider a swimmer's test set results when making a decision about group placement.
If you have any questions about group placement, please do not hesitate to contact the coaching staff.
