METRO CHAMPIONSHIPS
July 15-17, 2016
30 swimmers attended the Metro Championships last week. All swimmers applied their best skills throughout the competition. Our new Assistant Coach, Cameron Gledhill, was impressed throughout the weekend with the high level of skill and the resilience our swimmers showed in all races, distances and strokes.
It is very pleasing to see swimmers focus on their underwater swimming throughout the race. Short Course swimming is great for conditioning this, but it takes concentration in training and then during the race. Our Abb Team did a great job of executing this.
Congratulations to our 6 medallists:
Tane Bidois – Gold 100 back; Gold 100 free;
Samantha Cox – Silver 100 back;
Claudia Fydler – Bronze 100 back;
Holly Nelson – Bronze 200 back; Bronze 100 free;
Emily Ong – Bronze 100 fly;
Becca St Vincent – Silver 100 free
Coaches look forward to building towards Abb Invitational, Club nights, NSW Age and Open SC Championships. I can see our improvement from SMNE Championships and I look forward to watching our swimmers extended themselves in the 6 weeks.
Happy Swimming
Amanda Isaac
Head Coach
