This past week the lsc (local swim comittee) started a program to allowteams to time trial during practices and post their reults onlie for comparison.Its an informal way to see where you are in relation to other SI swimmers right now.

With all of the changes we have come up with groupings that the coaching staff feels is most beneficial to the swimmers. However this does swing some people into...

I had been planning on going forward in 2 week segments because the COVID protocols can change pretty often. Our first two weeks in the water end this Saturday. So next Monday would start the next 2 week block. I had worked hard last night trying to figure out how to get as many people back into the water as possible with the available pool time that I thought I had. I was going to send out an email to that effect this morning, when I got hit with a...
