SEASONS GREETINGS SHARKS SWIMMERS & PARENTS:


Thank you all for one of the most interesting and successful years for our excellent Swim Club, The Sharks Swim Club. All competitions and practices are complete, (except for our more committed swimmers ; please be aware of daily updates on practice times & venue), and we look forward to a New Year of discoveries and progressive improvements in and out the pool.

I would like to congratulate the members of our club on a fantastic week of swimming last week. I would also like to congratulate our Jr coaches & Qualified Coaches on achieving some excellent results from their commitment to The Sharks Swim Club.

8 Sharks Swimmers competed last week at The Short Course World Championships in Turkey and the The ASATT Invitational in Trinidad, and once again by the end of the week, we had once again overhauled the record book.  5 New National Records, and 17 New Age Group Records (including the 5 National Records) were set by 4 of the 8 Sharks swimmers, certainly a great early Christmas present for the swimmers and our club.

Jordan Augier continued to show why he has been one of the most outstanding St. Lucia Swimmers in 2012 as he set 5 New National (& Age Group) Records at the World Champs. Teammate Julien Brice set 1 New Age Group Record and was under the previous National Record in the 100 IM. Young rising stars Adriana Gooding and Katelin Samuel set 5 New Age Group Records each in Trinidad against some fierce competition from Trinidad, Barbados, Antigua & Grenada. Honorable mention to Eden Crick who was under the previous age group Record in 2 of her 6 events at the Trinidad meet.

Congratulations to Kyle Ernest who swam personal best times in all 8 of his events, Christopher Phillips who performed to his best in 7 of his 9 events, and Jyasi Daniel who raced his way to 6 personal best times in 8 of his events. 

A truly excellent way to end the year and set the bar even higher for the next generation that will try to outperform some very fast times in the near future.

CONGRATULATIONS SHARKS SwimmerS, YOU ROCK!

THANK YOU SHARKS PARENTS:

Thank You to all of our parent volunteer administrators and parents and siblings,uncles,aunts, cousins, grandparents, family friends, who all support the growth and improvement of The Sharks Swim Club. 
We look forward to the continued support and encourage many more agents and family members and family friends to consider contributing to the great sport of swimming as St. Lucia Swimming moves forward to staging a world class swimmeet in the very near future.

 "Work is done, then forgotten. Therefore it lasts forever." - Laotse

In Gratitude,
Sharks Coaching Staff - "KAIZEN" - (continuous improvement)

(P.S. SHARKS Beach Practice today Friday, 21st at the Ramp from 4:15-6 pm...All parents should account for a peak in traffic at the pick up time).

Sharks Upodate

Hi SHARKS:

Congratulations to all our SHARKS Swimmers, YOU DID IT!  Once again we were crowned Short Course National Champions and our Girls Team  were Girls Team Champions and our Boys finished 3rd. Most important we had several outstanding swims and our team of 38 swimmers recorded an ASTOUNDING 175 Personal Best Times, along with 4 NEW Age Group Records (1 for Jyasi Daniel & Katelin Samuel & 2 for Eden Crick)THAT IS AWESOMMEEEEEEEE!!!

We have also once again had the most swimmers selected to represent St. Lucia at the OECS Swimming Championships, and they will be formally introduced to the press and SLASA Members at the pool on Sunday @ 1 pm. 

Parents we need everyone's help to raise the necessary funds to send our 2012 St. Lucia National OECS Team to Antigua this year. The Goal is $75,000 and we are almost half way there. We have one more month to raise the finds and our swim club will be having some fundraisers over the next 3-4 week period to assist.  

Please see attached a letter from our Club President with details for A BAKE SALE next week Saturday, October 20th at the JQ Mall in Rodney Bay. Please assist with donations in kind or by volunteering some of your time to help at the table.

Summer Splash

Hi SHARKS:

Congratulations on a GREAT SUMMER SPLASH. The SHARKS finished 2nd overall, and for the first time ever the Girls Team outscored the Boys Team, way to go SHARKS Girls! The boys still have a little bit of bragging rights, as they finished 2nd overall and the girls team finished 3rd. 

Congratulations to our swimmers for:

- First SWIMMEET = Christian Guillaume & Antoine Destang
-  Top 3 in age group =  Antoine, Anya & Clare
- Age group WINNER = Adriana, Katelin, Jyasi, Laura & Julien
- Age Group Records = Adriana (x2) = (200 Freestyle & 50 Backstroke), Katelin (100 FLY) & Jyasi (200 Breaststroke)

Our entire team swam really well as we had young swimmers who stepped up and swam new events for the first time including relays, and almost every swimmer had a fantastic swim as several best times were accomplished.

Thanks to all the parents who volunteered and the other parents and swimmers for making it a fun filled weekend of racing, cheering and team bonding. It was very different not having our senior swimmers at the meet, however we wish them all the best on all their new endeavors as we move fwd with a new identity.

Way to go SHARKS!  Just 6 weeks until The Short Course Championships, let's make it fun by making every day, every practice and every stroke count. KAIZEN...

(As you can see, this is why Tom usually writes these emails, cause he's actually funny).

In addition, we still have SHARKS Swim Caps left over from our last order and they are in brand new condition. The caps are durable black silicon material with the SHARKS Logo in white on each side and they look great on our swimmers at meets and practices. The caps also run $25 and there are only 20 left, so please respond to this email if your swimmer is interested, or come prepared to purchase one at our next swimmeet on Sunday, MARCH 18th. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
If you are interested in purchasing BOTH, its $50 for the T-SHIRT and CAP.

We highly recommend that everyone buys a T SHIRT as we would like ALL of our swimmers dressed up in our New Team Gear ready to participate or come cheer on their teammates at the RHAC Invititational Swimmeet at the end of MARCH. We have many new members who have joined this year, and some returning members, so we would like to take a new team picture to update our website with our old and new faces.                                                                                                                            

Looking forward to a busy and Exciting month of swimming...GO SHARKS!
  
Kind Regards,
Jamie
