Courtenay Crusades!!

Last weekend we had four Royals compete in the Courtenay Summer Swim meet.

Congratulations to Jordan Dakai! This meet was Jordan's first time competing as a Div 1 swimmer and she did amazingly well. She broke the fifty second mark in her 50 Fr. Well done Jordan. Jordan also received the best time kickboard.

Also congratulations to Vienna Nguyen who tied Coach Sean for the best time kickboard and legitimately beat him in a show down of rock scissors paper.

Vivienne Nguyen also represented the Royals with and awesome weekend of swimming!

Well done everyone!

On to Nanaimo next weekend.

Have a fun and SAFE Canada day everyone!!

Making a splash!!

We had a very fun and successful weekend! Our Royals competed in the Oak Bay Orcas hosted swim meet at the Commonwealth Pool Saturday and Sunday last. Congratulations to everyone that competed!
Jordan Dakai, Sheyda Shams, Ida Shams, Brittney McMahon,and Grace Brown were all first time summer meet competitors and fared extremely well.

Congratulations to the Stacey sisters for their efforts in attaining all best times and receiving the Sr. Kickboard.

Congrats to Jessica Coady who had a stellar meet (also setting huge best times) and earning the Jr. Kickboard.

I also wanted to recognize the invaluable help of Vienna Nguyen. Vienna has been a volunteer coach with the Royals since February and has shown exemplary leadership to our young swimmers. Vienna helped all our Novice swimmers this weekend, even swimming along side them for support! She also had a great meet setting best times and acting as a true Royals emissary! THANKS VIENNA!!

Coming up is The Courtenay Meet this weekend and then the Nanaimo swim meet July 1-3.
Please e-mail liz.lowe@shaw.ca to enter either or both of those meets.

See you at the pool!!
