High school swimming plays a crucial role for our FAST senior athletes, offering valuable team-building experiences, skill advancement, and continuous development. Many high school program participants do not engage in year-round swimming, leading them to re-learn strokes, refine techniques, and enhance conditioning at the beginning of each new high school season. The FAST High School Prep Program caters to these high school-only swimmers, providing them with an opportunity to stay in the water throughout the year, aligning with their schedule. This program ensures they enter the next high school season well-prepared to contribute immediately to their team.

 

Session Schedule

The FAST High School Prep Program comprises four 8-week sessions, offering athletes the chance to swim four mornings a week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday) from 6:30 AM to 8:00 AM at the Fishers High School Natatorium. FAST recommends attending at least three workouts each week, focusing on stroke development, technique refinement, and aerobic conditioning.

 

Session 1* – July 8 - August 30

Session 2** – September 3 – October 25 (Girls)/November 8 (Boys)
