About SwimFit Squad
SwimFit Squad is a structured session designed to build technique, speed, and overall fitness in the water. Sessions include a mix of timed sets, technique work, and interval training, all while continuing to develop more advanced skills. You can expect to cover around 1.4–2km in a one-hour session.
It’s a fun, social squad environment where everyone is working at their own pace, with multiple lanes to suit different speeds. This squad is best suited to swimmers who are already comfortable swimming longer distances and are looking to improve their speed and overall swim fitness.

SwimFit Squad runs across an 11-week term, followed by a 1-week break before the next term begins.
New swimmers can join partway through a term if places are available. Swimmers may also mix SwimFit Squad sessions with Endurance Squad lessons.
