Our Programs
|
Calgary Elite Synchro offers programs for all abilities. We have a pre-competitive and a competitive stream which has two streams, Provincial and National. Training is offered at the Brookfield Residential YMCA at Seton, Remington YMCA in Quarry Park, and the MNP Community & Sport Centre (formally Repsol Centre). The competitive season runs from the end of August until mid-June. Our pre-competitive program runs in shorter intervals throughout the year, and is a great way for young swimmers to try the sport. Calgary Elite's programming aligns with Synchro Canada's Long-Term Athlete Development Framework. We currently offer programming for Stages 1-4. Are you unsure which program is right for your swimmer? Program descriptions are below, but you can also send any questions to our Program Administrator at CESadmin@calgaryelitesynchro.com.

2022/2023 REGULAR SEASON COMPETITIVE PROGRAMS
10 & Under (Click HERE for Program Details)
Our 10 & Under program typically runs 2 times per week for a total of 4 hours. This program is for girls new or returning to the sport and who want to take on a little more than what is offered in the pre-competitive programs. As with all other program levels, the athletes will develop a new set of skills, through activities in and out of the pool. You can expect your swimmer to learn skills appropriate to a beginner athlete as well as a routine suited for their level. This is often the first full competitive season and a big thrill for our athletes. While the butterflies may exist, our swimmers get to experience performing in front of judges and large audiences with the support of our dedicated coaching team.
Novice Competitive Team (Click HERE for Program Details)
The Novice program is for swimmers without previous synchronized (artistic) swimming competition experience age 11 and up. The athletes in this program train 2 times per week and get an introduction to local competitions designed specifically for their age and experience category. You can expect that your swimmer will be teaching you a thing or two in the pool!
11 - 12 Age Group Competitive Provincial Team (Click HERE for Program Details)
The 11 - 12 program is for swimmers that have previous experience with synchronized (artistic) swimming or are strong swimmers. The athletes in this program swim 3 times per week. Our 11 - 12 swimmers are introduced to challenging workouts and attention to detail is stressed. Tight bonds between team members, based on months (if not years) of working together, start to yield significant results. You can expect that your athlete will be swimming laps around you!
