Weekly Message From Head Coach Kyle

 

SSC Swimmers & Parents,

 

Thanks all for another great week of training. Our first official week of Summer was a huge success and a ton of fun! I am so happy to see so many of our athletes taking advantage of the events and training modalities we are working hard to provide you. I have so much hope and pride in this program and where it is headed. Thank you all!

 

This is a BIG weekend for competition and a busy week with the holiday so please take the time to review the revised schedule in detail and make sure you are prepared!


BG/BG+ Please be advised that we are offering an additional class this Friday, 07/07 for our summer program. Please feel free to take advantage of this class!

SSC Open Water Training opportunity: Every Wednesday we are running our Open Water practice1 We will be extending this opportunity to any interested SSC Athletes in the Novice group or higher! The practice info can be found in our weekly practice schedule in the Seniors/Advanced section, so please lookout for that information! Practices will take place at Broadway Beach in Rocky Point, NY 11778 and will  begin at 7:00am and will be over by 8:30am at the latest! If you plan on attending, please make sure to get a open water swimmer’s buoy in order to participate. These will be MANDATORY for all participants. Wetsuits are recommended but not mandatory. Please feel free to contact our team sponsors at TYR for help with products as well!

 

RAC swimmers - Please be advised that the meet hosts at RAC ran into timeline issues and some automatic event scratches in the 1500m Free and 100M free were applied to some of our athletes. I have reviewed options to reinstate those events for athletes who were effected. We were told by the meet host that the late scratches coming in may help us on this matter so please be patient! For the time being, we have attached the Psych Sheet to the meet information as well as the meet timelines, and warm up assignments. Relays have been submitted for the Open Age Group only. Many of our 12 year old athletes will be on these relays so please plan accordingly. Relays will not be announced until day of the meet and are always subject to change.

 

We will be meeting for RAC at 6:30 am from the Island 16 Parking lot. Additional meet information to follow in a separate email. 

 

Please be advised that we have some Coaches taking on some big challenges in the next few weeks. Best of luck to Coach Rob today as he takes on a huge 70.1 mile Triathalon!!!! 

 

SSC Advanced Coach, Rachel Ditolla, will once again be signing up for the Swim Across America in September for the sake of fighting cancer. If you would like to donate to her cause, please consider donating as  all the money goes towards cancer research in an effort to obtain the appropriate methods and materials to help find a cure one day. Here is the link to donate- http://www.swimacrossamerica.org/goto/Rachel_DiTolla


 

Additionally, Coach Rob will be partnering with our fellow Masters swimmer, Kim Larsen, as a Kayaker for this summer’s Maggie Fischer Memorial Cross-Bay Swim!  Please consider donating to their cause if possible at the following link: https://runsignup.com/Race/Donate/NY/Brightwaters/RaceJoybzqc8kq0ZQwm2D?runnerFundraiser=1L3rzmoAFxllTcu0
