JR2 News! 

Hi everyone! 

    

I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the start of your winter break. The kids had another really great week of training in the pool! We shifted our focus this week a little bit and did more sprint focused work across all four strokes and the kids responded really well to it. It makes me so happy seeing them embrace new challenges and stepping a bit out of their comfort zones. 

 

Next Saturday (the 28th) is the distance splash. I have been able to speak with most of the swimmers about which event they would like to swim. Please email me if you child has a preference with what event they would like to swim and I will go ahead and enter them in it. If I do not hear from you by Thursday, I will pick their event. Also, please note that the MLK Invitational deadline is quickly approaching as well. If you would like your athlete to attend, please get them signed up ASAP! As always, let me know if you have any questions.

 

Those of you traveling this week for the holidays, safe travels. The practice schedule for the week can be found below. Just as a heads up, I will be out tomorrow-Wednesday to be with my family for the holidays. I will be back Thursday evening for practice. This week we will be having combined practices with the JR 3’s and 4’s regardless of whether I am there or not. It is my understanding that this is how it has been in the past. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this. Other than that, I wish everyone a nice and relaxing rest of the weekend and a happy holidays! I will be looking forward to seeing you all when we return. 


 

Enjoy your week!
