HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year Everyone!! I hope everyone enjoyed their Holidays and were able to relax and enjoy the down time. Read below for updates on club activities.


Christmas Camp 2009:

12 GVAS swimmers participated in the three - day Christmas training camp. The camp was a blast! Participants Swam at the Commonwealth, Crystal, Juan de Fuca and Naden Pools. They hiked to the summit of Mount Work and all the way to Beachy Head at East Sooke Park. They had a tour of the new Pacific Institute of Sport Excellence and were introduced to some great new core strength exercises. The extra curricular activities such as skating at Pearks, movie at Silver City and capture the flag at Royal Roads made the hard work of the camp worthwhile.

Thanks to all the participants for representing the club with maturity and integrity. Looking forward to next year's...Here is a video of some of the highlights of the camp...enjoy!

Congratulations:

We had six swimmers compete in the Pacific Coast Swimming Christmas Cracker Meet. Our swimmers excelled among the 600 swimmers from across the country. Congratulations to Jessa, Jenna, Kira, Ashley, Gabe and Josh. Everyone left the meet with best times.


Josh and Kira also set AA times. Josh in his 100m backstroke and Kira in her 100 and 200m Breaststroke. Josh and Kira will be representing the club in two weeks at the Vancouver Island Regional Championships in Duncan.


Nice Work Everyone!!

I am looking forward to a great 2010 Season!!

See you at the pool,


Coach T
