SPEED WORK

We will be introducing one session of speed work into the Gold Squad's Build Up preparation. This session will be swum each Wednesday afternoon for the next six weeks. The session is designed as an introduction to the race preparation type training that will begin in six weeks after the aerobic conditioning build up work has been completed.  
 
COMMUNICATION
Quite frequently some aspect of the swim teams training might be annoying or upsetting. Please do not keep this to yourself. Often the Coach can be going along thinking everything is wonderful and simply not know about your concerns. If you have something that needs to be addressed please let me know. I would much prefer to know about your concerns and address them than have them linger as a constant frustration. 
 
TRAINING TIME CHANGE
The start time for training this Saturday 29th May will change to 6.00am. Training will end at 8.00am. The alteration has been caused by the Waterhole swim meet being held at West Wave this Saturday. See you at the pool nice and early.
 
AUCKLAND WINTER CHAMPIONSHIPS
The Official Poster and Events file for the Auckland Winter Champs are now posted. Although our Gold squad will have only recently completed the build up portion of this season's training we will ease up the training and do a week of race preparation for this meet. All qualified swimmers should plan to take part in this competition. It will be a guide to where your training is at following the build up conditioning period and will be the new team's first outing. Let's make it a good one.  
 
WELCOME
