Pitons Challenge

Please be advised that the Southern Flying Fish Swim Club has decided to postpone the Pitons Open Water Swim. The proposed date is Sunday March 25th.

Also, coming up on the Calendar this month:

1) Go the Distance Swimmeet - Sunday February 26th 

Our SHARKS Coaches continue to work on improving the technique of all our swimmers, as well as introducing the importance of a positive attitude and setting SMART goals.

We are encouraging all of our swimmers to challenge themselves to compete in a race they have never done at the GO THIS DISTANCE meet, as many of them can now complete 4, 8 and even 16 laps of Freestyle with more ease due to their improvement in technique and their understanding of being more efficient in the water. Please encourage your kid(s) to come and support their team as swimmers and as spectators if you or your swimmer decides to sit this meet out.

2) MOVIE NIGHT at the Spiegelbergs (in Rodney Heights)

We are still finalizing details, but this is a tentative notice to leave Tuesday 21st of February open on your calendar. Further details will be sent out in respect to the time of the event as well as organizing a pot luck for a small feast for our swimmers, coaches and parents.

Thank you for your continued support of the best swim club in Saint Lucia...GO SHARKS!

Coach Jamie
