Fwd: Clinic - Monday 28th December at 8.15am

We are please to advise that we have organised a short training clinic  for Monday 28th at 8.15am.  This session will be run by Tony Davies  (Swan Hill Satellite Squad) and can be used as your warm up on Day 2.  

The Swan Hill satellite squad of the Traralgon Swimming Club was established at the beginning of 2014 and so has been operating for almost 2 years. Tony is a bronze level accredited coach who coaches the group (of 5 swimmers) under the mentorship and direction of Brian Ford, the Head Coach of the Traralgon Swimming Club. Brian is one of the most respected figures in Victorian swimming, and his record as coach of the Traralgon Swim Club speaks for itself. 

I know it is an early start for you on the second day but these opportunities don't come our way that often and I strongly encourage you to show your support and attend this clinic.

Here is a brief outline of what the clinic will involve;

 8.15 Introduction – self, Traralgon Swim Club, satellite squad member introduction, explanation of 3 key swimming words, "Be the Best You Can Be"

 8.20 Band work (pre-swim) exercise demonstration

 8.25 Freestyle 10 mins

Important technique points: one goggle breathing, full extension

Drill: full extension drill, stroke count, Russian number

 8.35 Backstroke 10 mins

Important technique points: head position, boiling the water, rotating the shoulder

Drill: shoulder pop drill, stroke count

8.45 Breaststroke 10 mins

Important technique points: full extension, fast heels, timing

Drill: kick on board, one pull/2 kick

8.55 Butterfly 10 mins

Important technique points: "oomph" when you catch, breath position and timing

Drill: fly with fins

9.05 How to kick freestyle/Why we should love to kick

9.10 Conclusion Don't count the laps, make every lap count.

Fwd: Sunraysia Two Day Roster

Hi Everyone,

Please find attached roster for the Sunraysia Two Day.  Our local entry numbers are very low so I apologise that most people have been given one or more jobs for the duration of the two day meet. 

As most people have been given a job to ensure this meet runs smoothly and efficiently, it would be a great idea if all Sunraysia swimmers sit in the one area as I have nominated a parent to supervise the team each day and they will be responsible for making sure that your child will get to marshalling etc.,

Just a reminder that each club has been asked to bring a hamper basket to be used as a gate/raffle prize.

Thanking you again for your continued support - hope you all have a great Christmas.

Fwd: Waves Entry Fees - Training Session

Hi Everyone,

I have been asked by the Mildura Waves to remind you that payment for pool entry is required for each training session.

For training sessions, swimmers who are not Mildura Waves members must pay to enter at reception, or make other arrangements such as visit passes.

All swimmers are asked to check in at reception, whether members or not as they walk through.

This does not apply to our pennant meets, where you are not required to pay entry and enter via the  back gate near the Mildura clubrooms.

Saturday Morning Training 

Cameron Douglass is taking a session on Saturday mornings at the Waves from 8am - 9.30am. This session is open to all Sunraysia swimmers who are aged 12 and over or younger ones that are able to train for the 1 - 1/2hrs.  Cost is your pool entry into the Waves.  You don't have to register your name or anything - just turn up!

There will be no training on Saturday 26th December and Saturday 2nd January. 

Roster

Thank you to everyone who has helped out on the roster so far this season.  Low numbers this season plus having withdrawals on the night often leads to being rostered on more often and/or us asking for volunteers on the night.  Thanks for your ongoing support with the roster.

On behalf of Sunraysia Swimming we wish all our members and families a very Merry Christmas and a happy and safe New Year - and we look forward to seeing you all at the Sunraysia Two Day Open.
