One GAF Standard for Every Swimmer.
Every GAF centre is built around the same commitment to developing swimmers for the long term. Our coaches, training environments and programmes work together to create the foundations for swimmers to learn, develop, compete and progress.
All our Centers
Expert Coaching
Great swimmers are built by great coaches. Our centres bring experienced coaches together with a structured LTAD approach to developing swimmers at every stage of their journey.
Quality Infrastructure
The right environment matters. Our centres provide training environments designed to give swimmers the space, facilities and conditions they need to develop and perform. Both in the pool and outside it.
Technology
Train smarter. Develop better. We embrace technology and data that help coaches understand swimmers, refine training and make better-informed decisions.
Performance Support
Performance is more than training in the pool. Where available, swimmers benefit from complementary support such as strength and conditioning, physiotherapy, nutrition and other sports-science expertise
The Performance Squad
What is Performance Squad
.The GAF Performance Squad recognises swimmers who achieve the performance standard required for their age and event. Each year, GAF publishes a Performance Squad Timing Sheet, with qualifying times set by event, age and gender.
Swimmers who achieve the published qualifying time are eligible to join the Performance Squad and access the benefits that come with it.
No nominations. No subjective selection. Just performance.

A swimmer will be in the performance squad till the next publication of the new targets,.
