Tuggeranong Masters offers three free ‘come and try’ coached training sessions for swimmers to experience Masters swimming before becoming a member. To attend, please arrive 10-15 minutes early to any one of our coached training sessions listed below and introduce yourself to the coach.
There is no need book at the pool for one of our training sessions, the club has pre-booked spots so that swimmers can just turn up to a session. When you arrive at the pool’s reception, let them know that you are swimming with Masters and they (after taking your entry fee) will let you in.
Over a succession of training sessions all strokes are swum, however if swimmers for any reason cannot or do not want to swim a particular stroke, they are free swim a modified form of the stroke or to swim a stroke of their choosing. At training, swimmers are grouped into lanes to match their fitness and swim skills.
Additional information
Our club delivers three types of sessions to its members as follows:
- Training: coached sessions, generally structured as a warm up, drills/technique, build/pre-set, main set and cool down
- Endurance: choice sessions where swimmers determine what they will swim across all strokes from a program of 400m, 800m, 1500m, 30 min, 45 min and 60 min swims. Swims are timed and are entered into the National Endurance 1000 Program
- Distance & Pace: freestyle-focussed sessions designed for training for longer distance and open water swims. The coach swims these sets alongside the swimmers.
Masters Swimming caters to anyone aged 18 or over, all swimming abilities, and all levels of interest, whether that is a swim once a week for fitness, or attending multiple sessions, competing locally or nationally, or socialising with like-minded others – our motto being “Fitness. Friendship and Fun“.
