Weekly Update 02/21 - 02/27

Kyle Wilson

Hello Team,

 

Greetings from Senior Mets! This weekend, Senior Swimmer Samantha Watson is representing SSC in the 100 Breaststroke and the 200 Breaststroke! We are wishing her the very best of luck in tomorrow’s 200 Breaststroke Race! It is a huge accomplishment to be at a meet like this one and I am looking forward to many more years of our athletes filling up the Sr Mets entries in the future!

 

Next week, we will be observing a very unusual schedule (below) so please take a moment to review it in detail and know where you are going. All practices will be held at the Patchogue YMCA located at 255 West Main Street, Patchogue, NY 11772. THIS IS A DIFFERENT LOCATION THAN THE HOLTSVILLE YMCA.


We will be offering a double training option to Seniors and encourage all Seniors to take advantage of the training opportunity, especially if you are not competing in next weekend’s silver’s championship meet. Wednesday will also offer the opportunity for Juniors swimmers to get an additional day of training in during the week.

 

Beginners are a-go for next week. Beginners will also swim in their usual time slots at the Patchogue YMCA.

 


Thanks,


Coach Kyle
