Competitive Program

Typically, progression to the competitive program is between 8 and 11 years of age. Given the competitive artistic swimming structure in Ontario and Canada, it is difficult for swimmers older than eleven years of age to enter the competitive stream. Such athletes would be competing against swimmers who have been in competitive artistic swimming for several years with much higher skill levels and experience.
