City of Sunderland Short Course Meet 2015

A great away meet by both Regional Squads.  You are all swimming amazing at the moment and so early on in the season.  We were really impressed with you all over the weekend, especially with the improvement on the underwater speed and distance off the wall on starts and turns.  

 

Well done to those swimmers who achieved North Eastern qualifying times for the end of November and to those who bagged Yorkshire times for the New Year. 

 

A big thank you to the volunteer Team Managers who looked after the swimmers throughout the competition and to the Judges and Timekeepers who helped out to make the meet possible.

 

With the North Eastern's at the top of Regional Age Groups competition calendar, anyone who has a achieved a time should enter and compete, even if it is only one event.  You have done the hard work and achieved the times so therefore deserve to swim against the fastest swimmers in the North East. 

 

Remember every millisecond you knock off is a step closer to those qualifying times, work every turn in training like you would want to perform them in your race so they are perfect on the day.   

 

We have 5 weeks of work now until our next competition (Sheffield B Grade or North Eastern Counties).  Get stuck in to training, concentrate and work hard on those skills.

 

Let's go show them how it's done!
