Fun Relays and Meet Pracitce

2012-01-01T13:00:00.000-08:00

Over the past week CCHS has had some interesting practices. Last Friday while the boys were at their meet with Chelmsford we girls had a fun relay practice. The girls did fly to back, back to breast and breast to free relays. They also participated in a sculling relay and a doggy paddle while barking relay. There was great enthusiasm for that relay! It was fun to lighten the work load but still sneak in some skill work; starts, relay starts, IM turns and sculling !

This week we had no meets and the kids worked hard every day. We closed out the week with a practice made up of a meet warm up and then swam every event in a dual meet, including the distance of each relay. I was so impressed with the effort the kids put into this practice! Our newer kids, lanes 7&8, accomplished the challenge too! A special notice to Jack Gardner and Simon Li who I spotted jumping out of the pool and the end of this tough practice to crank out some push ups! We have had plenty of room in the pool this week so lanes 7&8 didn't have to spend have their usual time on deck doing dry-land, perhaps those boys are missing it!? Nice Work to all of you who participated in the vacation week workouts!

Beede Meet October 30, 2011

Thank you to the CCHS Swim and Dive team for braving the harsh fall snow storm to help out with the 5th annual Beede Masters swim meet. I love the way this meet brings the community together, both youngters and oldsters. The oldsters think it's really groovy that the high school team members are standing at the end of their lanes with stopwatches in hand and cheering them on.

Swimmers, remember the second week of swimming I will be meeting with you and discussing your goals for the season. You should have received an email with a list of things to think about with respect to your goals. The email was sent on 10/24 and titled GOALS.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and I will see you in a couple of weeks!
