The teachers and coaches attend seminars and help with other training programmes in order to update their knowledge and to broaden their perspective in swimming by working with more experienced coaches.
The
teaching section of the Club follows the SASA and the Aqua Aberdeen teaching
schemes and the junior coaching section is under the guidance of the COAST head
coach.
