Pre-Competitive Swim Team Levels: Stroke School is the entry level program of H2okie Aquatics and has several flexible options available from which swimmers and parents can choose. Most swimmers that participate in Stroke School are between the ages of 5 and 12 years old and have a little swimming experience, such as one or two years of participation with a summer league swim team or have taken swim lessons with a local swim lesson program. Stroke School 1 (SS1) SS1 is the beginning level of our team. Most swimmers in SS1 are between the ages of 5-8 and have minimal swimming/ lesson experience. Practice is offered two times per week for approximately 45 minutes, and it is recommended that swimmers try to attend two times per week to see steady improvement if they can do so. Practice days are on T/TH 5:45 6:15 p.m. Stroke School 2 (SS2) Most swimmers in SS2 are between the ages of 6-10 and have a little swimming/lesson experience. Practice is offered two times per week for one hour, and it is recommended that swimmers try to attend both times each week to see steady improvement. Practice days are on T/TH. 5:45-6:45 p.m. Middle School Prep (MSP) Most swimmers in MSP are between the ages of 11-14 and have some or a small amount of swimming experience. Some have taken lessons or swam summer league or swam for the Middle School team but still may need some stroke development before becoming strong, fluid swimmers. Swimmers in this group can swim for short-medium distances but may not have the endurance or technique to swim for long distances without tiring. Practice is offered T/TH 6:15-7:15 p.m.
