Assessment Weeks

During assessment nights the teachers & coaches will be assessing each Swim Channel swimmer within the widths and lenghts sessions (Levels 1 - 10) in accordance with the National Plan for Teaching Swimmers (NPTS). This does not guarantee a swimmer will be moved up to the next level but will provide a method of monitoring the swimmers progress against the NPTS objectives.

Assessments will occur on Friday, Sunday, Monday & Wednesday during the assessment week with each Swim Channel swimmer being assessed once during this period.

If you have any questions regarding the assessments or NPTS Levels 1 to 10, please contact Steve Cryer (Swimming Development Officer) or your childs swimming teacher.

Badge Nights

All swimmers in Swim Channel Lengths (NPTS Level 7-10) and the Pre-Development Squad are invited to attend the Badge Night. For more information on Badge Nights, please see the Small Pool Notice Board or click here
