swim practice
Laps before school
Swim practice is a scheduled training session for competitive swimmers, typically held at a pool under a coach's direction.
The term is common among athletes from youth leagues through college: I can't hang out—I have swim practice at six.
Like other sports practices, it involves drills, conditioning, and technique work.
