Junior Sharks Welcome Letter

Welcome and Welcome back Junior Sharks!  Jr Sharks is  Ajax Aquatic Club’s pre competitive intro program.  This program is designed for  swimmers who can already 25m on their front and back independently without assistance.  Swimmers will learn proper stroke mechanics, turns, streamlines, dives etc.    

Once swimmers achieve proper technique in at least three strokes and know the legal turns for all strokes they may be invited by Coach Wendy to move to our Shark program.  Sharks is a year round program where swimmers continue to advance their strokes and skills. 

Fall Session (runs till Dec)

We will be doing an inhouse mini meet during lesson Week 9.  We also have reduced the fee when you sign up for a 2nd time a week.  We find the progress and buy-in to swimming is more consistent when we teach 2x/wk rather than once.  Fee breakdowns are at the end of this document.  

A Team T-shirt and cap:  Included in your registration. 

Training Suit:  It is best to have a snug fitting suit. We understand it may take the kids a while to get used to it and they would be more comfortable in surf shorts or a ruffled bikini… Bring them in what they are comfortable in and we will work on getting them to open up to the idea of wearing a training suit.  We will get the sun shirts off them as soon as we can, since those impede their arm motion that we are trying to teach.  

Goggles:  You have to try them on to get a good fit.  Take the two eye sockets, press them on your face, if they stick reasonably well for a few seconds those are likely good.  Other than that, pick what you like and it is on sale :) Example of a good pair below…
