Durham Synchro Club runs Recreational and Competitive programs aimed at swimmers ages 5 years and older. While not solely focused on competition, DSC's Recreational Programs introduce swimmers to the fundamentals of synchronized swimming and assist those swimmers who wish to improve or add to already existing swimming skills.
The Provincial and National Level Competitive Programs are for those athletes with prior synchronized swimming experience. Spending approx. 7 hours or more of practice time in the pool per week, Provincial and National level swimmers will also compete in a minimum of 3 competitions per season within Ontario including a number out of town. For National level teams, out of province travel for competitions is to be expected.

At the end of each synchro season, swimmers from the recreational and competitive programs will have the option of trying out for positions on the provinicial or national level teams. To be considered for the national teams, swimmers must have prior synchronized swimming experience and the recommendation of the Head Coach. Attendance at Tryouts does not automatically guarantee a placement on a competitive team. |
