Training commitments range from 3-8 hours per week depending on division level. Program Progression and Assessment:Advancement between levels requires demonstrated skill proficiency, appropriate training readiness, and competitive success at the current level. Athletes typically spend 1-2 years per division, though individual progression varies based on natural ability, training consistency, and personal goals. Regular assessments ensure athletes train at appropriate levels while maintaining motivation and competitive success.
