Senior Group

The Senior Group is TPA’s premier training group, featuring the program’s top-level athletes, typically high school-aged swimmers (13+) who are committed to the sport and seeking to train at an elite level. This group focuses on refining stroke technique, increasing training volume, and specializing in events to meet and exceed higher-level competition standards.

Practice sessions emphasize technique, endurance, and race strategies to prepare swimmers for high-level meets. Participation in swim meets is a key expectation, with members regularly competing in Florida LSC-sanctioned events, as well as regional and national-level competitions.

Swimmers in this group are expected to demonstrate a strong commitment to maximizing their potential through consistent training and competitive performance.

Practice Schedule:

Monday–Friday: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM

Saturday: 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM

The Senior Group attends monthly meets in the Greater Orlando area and participates in select travel meets. Members are expected to compete in these events, which are listed in the Team Events section.

Senior Elite Group

The Senior Elite Group represents the highest level of competitive swimming within the program, designed for athletes who demonstrate exceptional dedication, skill, and commitment. Swimmers in this group must meet or exceed AAA+ USA Swimming time standards and show the ability to fully commit to an extensive and rigorous training schedule.

This group emphasizes not only advanced swim technique, endurance, and race strategy but also incorporates comprehensive cross-training and focused health and wellness goals. Athletes’ physical conditioning, nutrition, and recovery are closely monitored to optimize performance and prevent injury.

Senior Elite swimmers regularly travel across the United States to compete in prestigious meets, gaining valuable experience at the national level. This group is ideal for swimmers aiming to compete at the highest levels of the sport and pursue collegiate or national team opportunities.

This group is by invitation only.
