Hello SSC Parents & Swimmers,
Hello from Maryland! We are swimming fast down here and I am blown away by the speed and results I am hearing and seeing back at home at the Eagle Invite!
We have set several Team Records, have made several Sectionals, Senior Mets, Metro Age Group Championships cuts, and more! Best times all around and another great weekend of lights out swimming!
SSC Athletes are on fire and I am looking forward to keeping the ball rolling into next week’s Reindeer Games Home Meet!
If you are in need of an IMX score or swim, please reach out to Coach Kyle for time trial opportunities on Sunday!
This week kicks off our WINTER Beginner and Beginner Plus sessions. Please read the schedule below carefully for the practice schedule this week. All other groups, please note there are some TBD practice locations and some changes in schedule for many. Please review and note that the next few weeks of practices may be subject to abnormal changes. We will be communicating any changes and confirming practices daily as we are working with the YMCA to determine additional facility use opportunities.
Beginner & Beginner Plus WINTER Registration is now open. If you have not yet signed up, please do not wait! Click here to register

2 - DMC Fins
We have just received a member-exclusive Discount Code from our friends at DMCFins! DMC makes great fins that are some of the best fins out there. They are made with soft materials and wide toe-boxes. The blades are short, wide, and come with a heel strap rather than a boot, which helps with maximizing torque in the water, quad activation, minimizes cramping and foot pain, as well as heps to create a more natural kick. We have had many SSC Swimmers begin using these fins and hope that they are of interest and help to many more.
Discount Code at Checkout: DMCSSD
Current Promotions: Free shipping on all Elite Max and Elite II fins
