Hello SSC Parents & Swimmers,
Greetings from Rochester NY! We just wrapped up a serious meet and our athletes kicked some serious butt up here at the 2023 Eastern Zones Championships with huge PBs, Team Records, and finalists! Tonight is the last night of finals so please wish our athletes good luck in their final races this weekend. Huge shout out to Connor Frank, Amber Naude, Tayne Naude, and Brooke Orner for qualifying! We have made a huge impact here at this meet with a small roster and I am so proud of these young athletes for their hard work this season!
Please don’t forget about the SSC Time Trial on 04/04! Please click here to view the email sent out earlier this week regarding this opportunity. The deadline for entry is TODAY 04/02 at 10:00am!

1 - DMC Fins
Please take advantage of our 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.
