There WILL be practices at the usual time during spring break. We encourage all swimmers in groups A-C to come out and try some Waterpolo.
Have a good break from school!
Thanks to all the swimmers and parents who attended the mini meet on Feb 5, 2o11. We had approximately 15 swimmers from Salmon Arm attending. They were appreciative of our efforts and enjoyed the laid back nature of the competition. Fun was had by all and swimmers and parents alike learned the flow of a swim meet. The results of the meet are posted below.
Attached is the meet package for the mini meet. Sign up will be posted on the website by January 24, 2011. Ogopogo swimmers are NOT required to pay registration fees.
Welcome back to swimming, after the winter break. Just a quick note to remind swimmers that we would like to see as many swimmer out as possible, in the upcoming months. With the Mini Meet approaching, we would like to be sure all swimmers have been in the water as much as possible.
The coaches want to remind swimmers that each practice works on a specific skill set, and the practices are a progression. If a practice is missed, swimmers may miss out on important instruction and skill development they will need in future practices. We understand that swimmers have other activities that may conflict, we ask that you do your best to get to as many practices as possible.
Also, for those swimmers who are looking for a bit more time in the water, remember that waterpolo is ongoing, on Monday and Wednesday evenings, from 5:30-6:30, for swimmers in Group C and up.
An lastly, a reminder that all swimmers should be on deck 15 min prior to the start of pool time. This allows for some dryland training and ensures swimmers are in the pool for the entire 60 min practice.
Watch for the mini meet sign up information, to come out later this week.
