InCAS have scheduled promotions,
normally four times a year - January, April, July and October. If a swimmer
is issued with a letter of intent, they will feed into the next squad for a
month. This means they train with the higher squad for one session a week
to give them a gradual introduction to the new level of training. At the
end of this period the coach, the swimmer and, if appropriate, their
parent(s) will discuss if the promotion should go ahead. The monthly fees
will only increase if the promotion goes ahead. In special circumstances
and with the approval of the head coach, swimmers may be promoted out with
this schedule.
As well as the basic
requirements detailed for each squad, promotions will also be based upon
competition performance, attendance, training ability, lane discipline,
behavior, attitude and commitment. To secure a place in these squads, the
entry criterion must be obtained each year. Any individual failing to meet
the required standard will be moved into a squad more suited to their
achievements.
