The Lion Mail: Halloween Edition

Stamford Lions Swim Academy

We are currently in to our OCT-NOV series of our swim program for Grade 6-12 and online land series for all grades!

We are so proud of our lions who joined us online over the fall break for our workouts! Showing their true lion pride and attending sessions throughout the holiday! 

For all new members interested in joining the Stamford Lions Swim Academy please email [email protected]for more information on the programs we currently offer. 

Parent Coach Conferences

This year our coaching team organised our first Parent Coach Conference! Similar to the Parent Teacher Conferences organised at school, our parents had the opportunity for a virtual meet to find out more on how their student-athletes are progressing not only in their classrooms, but the pool too! 

Was this conference helpful? What are some suggestions you have for next time? We want to know! Our virtual door is always open, feel free to send us an email :)

 

Join us for our google meet

It’s Halloween! And this week our FRIYAY will be our scaaaary edition. Be sure to join our google meet below – all Stamford students are welcome!

Workout Wednesday – Dear Coach Paul

We received our first piece of lion mail from our very own Hana!  

Hopefully Hana’s witty sense of humour was enough for Coach Paul to consider some of her suggestions 

 

What’s been going on this week?

Coach Grace share’s her thoughts on our ‘Think About It Thursday’ 

As soon as circuit breaker was announced, I knew that I needed something to get me through that difficult time. I printed off this poster for myself and posted it in my home to act as a reminder that with COVID, you have to accept that some things are out of your control. 

 

Our aquatics team chose to make the best out of a tough situation. We used the opportunity to explore our programme’s vision, to lay the foundations of the academy's future and to develop ourselves into a better coaching team with a larger knowledge base. Our team showed resilience

Now back in the water, we are thrilled that so many of our secondary student-athletes are in the pool again. But, we believe that a special mention needs to go out to our elementary students who have continuously showed up for our online land sessions each week. They have demonstrated fantastic resilience in attending the strength & core, cardio & endurance and Tabata workouts despite not being able to swim. They are taking advantage of the opportunities available to them during these restrictive times and that should be commended!

A huge shout out to our Simba, Leo, Aslan and Junior Development swimmers! Keep up the fantastic work and it will pay off in the future once we are able to return to the water!
