2019 October School Holiday Camps

During the second week of the October school holidays the National, Age and Junior Performance Squads took part in in-house training camps across Macquarie University, Ryde Aquatic Centre and Oakhill College.

The National Performance Squad trained at Macquarie University, getting in some valuable long course training early in the season, with both the Ryde and Oakhill squads participating in pool and dryland training, yoga alongside undertaking our testing and screening program. Between training sessions the swimmers participated in an education presentation from Anthony our dietician, Melissa Wu (World Championships and Commonwealth Games medal winning diver) and Bill Sweetenham spoke to the swimmers about what it takes to be a successful swimmer.

The Age and Junior Performance Squads trained at Oakhill College and Ryde Aquatic Centre, splitting sessions across both venues. The sessions included dryland and pool training sessions, with the squads also participating in the testing and screening program.
