These swimmers will become proficient at deep water skills including stride entries and compact jumps. They’ll develop lifesaving kicks such as eggbeater and scissor kick. Breaststroke, front crawl, and back crawl are further developed. Head-up swims, interval training, and a 300m workout develop strength and endurance.

Swimmer 7 (Rookie Patrol):

Swimmers continue developing front crawl, back crawl, and breaststroke. Swimmers develop individual fitness to meet a timed 100m swim and a 350m workout. Water proficiency skills include swimming with clothes, ready position, and feet-first/head-first surface dives. Demonstrating the ability to conduct a primary assessment and calling EMS are included as first aid skills. Victim recognition and throwing assists are other key elements of the program.
