Elizabeth Simpson

Congratulations to our Zone Team Swimmers!  Final results: The Stingray Nation took 5th place out of 73 teams!  The Stingray Nation had MANY best times achieved and notable accomplishments. Our Stingrays took to the pool with fast distance swims on Friday night and kept the momentum going ALL WEEKEND LONG!  At one point we slipped to 8th place, but our swimmers swam hard and we climbed to 5th place by the end of the day on Sunday.  It was a great weekend to be a Stingray!

Looking ahead…

Spring Tune-Up

Join us for Spring tune-up!  These sessions will run from mid-April though and end just before Memorial Day weekend.  They are like our regular practice sessions with the five usual practice groups and times similar to the fall/winter season.  Evaluations are required for new swimmers and a Y membership is also required.  Registration links will be coming soon!.

Summer Long Course

The Summer Long Course session will begin after Memorial Day and run through the end of July.  This session will also have our five traditional practice groups. The Miniray, Bronze and Silver groups will train in the evenings at the YMCA. Gold and Senior groups will train in the evenings at North Farmington until school is out, and then they will most likely have their primary training at Botsford pool in the early mornings.

For the month of August, there will be another clinic, much like the March Clinic.

We will have our FFYS Short Course parent informational meeting at the end of August at the YMCA. Evaluations for group placements will be in early September.

 

 

Have a great week, Stingrays!
