Training

Sessions

Our coached sessions are open to any swimmer who is a member of a Masters Club. We frequently welcome swimmers from other Melbourne clubs, and have regularly welcomed swimmers from overseas countries who have been holidaying in Australia. All coaching is by qualified Masters coaches.

The Club has 3 coached training sessions a week. As of 23rd November 2020 these are:

• Saturday 8.30 am to 10.00 am

• Monday 6.30 pm to 7.45 pm

• Thursday 6.30 pm to 7.45 pm

The Club also participates in the Masters Swimming Australia Endurance 1000 program.

• Wednesday 8.00 pm to 9.30 pm (Indoor pool - not coached)

There are also a number of other times when club members swim together as a group.

Coached Session Fees

In addition to your annual membership fee the Dolphins training sessions cost $4.00 per coached session. This fee helps cover the cost of equipment and helps compensate the coaches for their time. Rather than paying cash each time, the club has a system of prepaid swim tickets.

To purchase a ticket you make an electronic funds transfer of $40.00 for 10 sessions (or $80.00 for 20 sessions) to the club's bank account and present a printout or screenshot of the transfer confirmation to the coach on pool deck. The coach will then give you a swim ticket which you will need to punch or mark each time you swim.
