News

Hi SHARKS:


We are very happy to say that September was a great start to the term and new swimming year. We had lots of swimmers move up from Learn to Swim to JR's and even a couple of our JR swimmers have stepped up and are swimming with the SR's a couple times a week. 

SWIM FEES:
Now that September is almost done, anyone who has not paid their September Fees is asked to pay prior to the end of this week. Coach Jamie really needs a bike to get to practice so he doesn't ruin his brand new sneakers, so please support the "Keep Coach Jamie's Sneakers New Drive" and pay those monthly fees.

We are also less than one week away from October Practices, and October fees are now due. Please look for our President Mr. Bruce or our Treasurer Veron Taylor who will be at the pool throughout this week, or drop your payment in our Sharks Box on the floor in the Aquatic Centre office and remember to collect your receipt in the basket next to the entrance to the pool.

 SUNDAY FUNDAY @ THE BEACH:

We have a couple events planned for the month of October, but we would like to remind all our swimmers that we will be having a fun morning on the beach next week Sunday, September 29th. On the menu of activities is an AQUATHLON (800m Run -800m Swim-800m Run) and a 3K Open Water Race at Reduit Beach (The Ramp) at 8 am (Registration begins at 7:30 am in front of the Yacht Club) and anyone is welcomed to participate or just bring breakfast to the beach and cheer on your teammates and family & friends.

LAST DAY OF THE MONTH

We will also be having a special Combined Practice from 5-6 pm on Monday, September 30th and all swimmers are Welcome to Join. Stretches will begin at 4:30 pm, however all JR 's are still welcome to arrive early. (This means JR's & SR's will practice together and the SR's will be helping the JR's).

OCTOBER SWIMMEETS:
The Short Course National Championships (formally known as OECS Trials) hosted by SJ's Swim Club will commence on Friday Evening ,October 18th and conclude on SundayAfternoon, October 20th. We encourage as many of our swimmers capable of swimming 25m in at least 2 strokes for 8&under and at least 50m in 2 strokes for 9&overs, to participate in this meet, (your coaches will advise who is ready to swim at this meet) as we attempt to defend our Championship once again.

SLASA also uses this meet to select the OECS National Team, so we encourage all our JR & SR swimmers to come to practice each day ready to improve by bringing their P.A.W.S (Positive Attitude, Water and Smiles). We are also asking in advance for parents to volunteer their time over the weekend to help officiate during the meet. We have been asked to provide names in advance, so we will be coming around with sign up sheets during practice to ensure we help out as best as we can, (your commitment to help will contribute to a more professionally run swimmeet and we will be able to start on time which is very important for our swimmers who have a long weekend of swimming ahead of them).

Our 11+ swimmers will have something to look forward to at the end of the month, The Spooky Inter Secondary Schools Swimmeet will be taking place on Halloween Day (Thursday, October 31st).

 OCTOBER NEWSLETTER & UPDATES:
Our October newsletter will be coming out very soon, so please look out for the "Team Events" section that will have all upcoming club events including team activities, fundraisers and mini meets.

Looking forward to an exciting end to the month and a challenging and fun month of swimming & activities in October.

KAIZEN,

AGM

The SHARKS Swim Club Annual General Meeting will be held Saturday June 15th at 10:30 am at the pool. 

Sunday, May 5, 2013

FROM THE COACHES:




WELCOME TO OUR NEW SWIMMERS...
Welcome to all of our new swimmers.  Nice to see so many on deck!  If you have any questions or concerns, please let our coaching staff know.  We have expanded in size, so please be patient as we adjust to find the best way to train your child in competitive swimming. 

UPCOMING DEVELOPMENTAL SWIM MEET MAY 18th... 
Starting at 12:00 PM on May 18th, SLASA (St. Lucia Amateur Swimming Association) will be hosting a developmental swim meet PERFECT for our younger swimmers.  I am encouraging all of my swimmers and the rest of the club to come out for the meet. There will be kick board races, as well as lots of 25 metre and 50 metre events.  Sign up is next WEDNESDAY MAY 8th.  We will be looking at the kids next Tuesday to see what they can swim. Please let Coach Jamie or Coach Tom know by next Wednesday if your child is able to participate. 

MAY AND JUNE TRAINING... 
For Coach Tom's swimmers, Level One Beginners Competitive class (3:45 class) will be focusing on the basic movements of the butterfly - body position, arms and legs.  We will also be reviewing all three kicks that have been taught throughout the year - straight leg kick, breast stroke kick and dolphin kick.  Level Two Beginners Competitive class (4:15 class) will be focusing on 25 metre butterfly, turns, and entrys.

For June, Level One Beginners Competitive class (3:45 class)will be reviewing arm movements for freestyle, butterfly, and backstroke. Level Two Beginners Competitive class (4:15 class) will be focusing on IM's, turns, and entrys.
ADDED LANES FOR MAY AND JUNE...
Sharks has consistently been the biggest swim club throughout the years and this year is no exception.  In fact, over the last two months, our program has blossomed. We have taken on an additional lane for Tuesday and Thursday swimming to accommodate the number of swimmers.  We have also taken on some extra coaching staff to help out. Please bear with us as we go through some growing pains.  

EXTRA TIMES FOR LEVEL TWO SWIMMERS...
With our extra swimmers in both Juniors (Coach Jamie) and Level 2 Beginners Competitive (Coach Tom), we have not moved children around in their levels.  But what we have done is offered Level Two swimmers a chance to train an extra half an hour with Coach Jamie after Tuesday and Thursday practice.  We have added an extra lane at 5:00 PM.  Any Level Two swimmers who would like to train an extra half an hour with Coach Jamie on Tuesdays and Thursdays may stay until 5:30 PM.  In September, we will redo our schedule to accommodate the extra Junior swimmers. 

JUNIOR COACHES PROGRAM...
Sharks is not only BROAD- holding a vast majority of St. Lucian national records, comprising over 50% of the national team AGAIN, maintaining the biggest membership while offering quality instruction, able to pay for our training program without seeking outside funding or lane help - but we are also DEEP.    We currently have five FINA level One coaches or higher (Claire, David, Jamie, Bailey, Zoe, Tom, and Laura).  We have also trained over 8 Sharks coaches in a hands on program which allows our swimmers to focus on another aspect of swimming and give back to the sport. 

We are once again offering our Junior Coaching program to get our young swimmers involved in coaching.   Any Shark swimmer 14 years or older (age is negotiable), possesses a strong knowledge of the four competitive strokes, and has several hours a week to give to swimming can apply for the program.  Coaches need to commit to a schedule of either Tuesday or Thursdays from 3:30 to 5:30 PM.  After having proved their reliability during the month of May and June, they are eligible to help coach starting in September.  If chosen, they will receive a discount on fees.  If you are interested in learning how to coach, please contact Coach Tom for more details.

AA CHALLENGE SUMMARY


Congrats SHARKS Swimmers. We had some fantastic swims on Sunday at the AA Challenge Meet. Captain - Jyasi Daniel swam 4 PB's including his first 400 free under 5 minutes (4:58) = (4x100 Free @1:15). He also went sub 1:20 in the 100 Breast, 1:07 in the 100 Fly and dare I say it, he has now joined the Double 0 club in the 100 Free, (1:00.95). Thats what we call, a Great Meet.

The Sharks Guys Squad won the 200 Free Relay (Chris, Kyle, Daron and Jaeden) and the squads biggest drop of the meet was Jakob (Jakey) in the 100 IM. He crushed his old 100 IM time by 16 seconds (in 4 months) and he also bettered his time in the 100 Free and 50 Back by 6 seconds. he capped off the meet by swimming his first 50m Fly in a meet. Keep it up Jakey, sky is the limit.

The Lady Sharks dominated the 100 free and top performer Katelin Samuel shaved over 1.3 seconds off her previous PB. She also went under 33 seconds (32.94) in the 50 Fly and 1:20 in her 100 fly (1:18) for the first time. In a nail biting finish, she was just 0.13 seconds shy of a "AA" time in her 50 Free (31.42). She also won both 50's and the 100 Fly, making her the only swimmer to have the overall fastest times in 4 events at the meet. Way to go Katie! Katie's best friend and training partner Eden Crick also had a great 50 fly & was within three tenths of a second of a "AA" time standard, (34.5)

Big props to Ashna for swimming her first 50 Fly, Natalya for swimming a complete Breaststroke line up (50, 100 & 200) and Maya for her impressive streak of top finishes in the 50m fly dating back to December.
The Lady Sharks squad biggest time drop came from Adriana (Adri the colorful fish) in the 200 IM with a 17 second drop (3:38) from her time in December. Adri took the smartest approach and put a lot of time into improving her weakest stroke, breaststroke, and because of that, she also dropped over 5 seconds in her 100 breast and is now way under 2 minutes. When you love the water, there are no limits to your potential, keep those gills wet Adri.

These are just some of the highlights from the meet. Please go to www.slasa.info (one of the best swimming websites), to see all the results and the slide show put together by the best sports photographer on island, Chris Huxley.

The best quote of the meet came from Daron, minutes after he swam his first 200 Free. He said, "Why did you take so long to put me in the 200 Free, it's so much better than the 200 Back". Who else is up for crushing a 200 Free? (Anything is possible).

COLD WEATHER SWIMMING
Just one final note, here a few tips to keep your children swimming during the frigid St Lucian winters...
1. Talk about the fun of swimming.  Avoid talking about the water temperature.
2. Have a warm towel ready to warm them up.
3. Don't push them if they are cold. 
4. Wetsuits are ok if available.
5. Offer lots of encouragement for swimming on cold days. Maybe the promise of a cup of hot chocolate when they get home. 

Thanks everyone!
