Swimming Handbook

Training Schedule (Years 7-12)

Monday, Wednesday, Friday – 6:00am–7:30am @ Senior 50m Pool

All swimmers should arrive 10 minutes early, ready to start on time. Attendance and consistency are key to development and selection.

Friday Breakfast (Optional): Join us after Friday morning training for a $4 Burrito and Juice. It’s a great way to connect with your peers and coaches in a relaxed environment. Coaches will also use this time to provide feedback and celebrate progress.

Clipboard (Training & Competition Management Tool)

Guildford Grammar School uses Clipboard to manage all training sessions, competitions, and Team communications. Students and parents can view scheduled activities, receive updates, and access important event information directly through the Clipboard platform. Attendance is also recorded through Clipboard, so it’s important that students check the app regularly and notify Mr Jo-Kovacs of any expected absences. This helps ensure accurate planning, smooth coordination, and clear communication across the program.

Training Expectations

We encourage:

Senior Swimmers – Minimum 2–3 sessions/week
Juniors – Minimum 2 sessions/week

Alternative arrangements must be discussed with the Head of Aquatics.
