7th August 2011 TRAINING RE-STARTS MONDAY 8TH AUGUST. Hope you have all had a good holiday and are well rested. 10th July 2011 Right Time to bring you all up to speed on whats been happening in the lives of the Scorpions! The Swimmers have come such a long way since the Glenrothes Meet. They are now no longer 'afraid' of distance swims (may not like them) and the upgrade in training sessions has shown this. We had the WHOLE! squad at Livingstons Graded meet in May where we (and they!) were awarded with 37 pb's and 5 swimmers making 9 finals. We are definately a force to be reckoned with! The Team support as usual was second to none and! in actual fact was commented on by various coaches NEXT!!!! We decided some of our more experienced swimmers maybe needed a 'little bit of a challenge' and entered 6 of them into the ELST Distance Meet in June. They all have extremely credible times for entry into this event which were all recently posted by themselves. Not sure what happened really but ALL 6 of them just BLEW THESE TIMES RIGHT OUT OF SIGHT! They just knocked 'lumps' of their pb's We were totally gobsmacked not to say bursting with pride for them all. QUOTE OF THE DAY from the meet was uttered by a swimmer who had just finished his 400metre Free swim ' Well! am definately NOT! doing that again!' ith a huge grin when they realised just how much they had pb'd by. 26th February 2011 Last weekend saw the majority of our swimmers in action at the Glenrothes Spring Meet. This was a huge step up for everyone who was competing, as for the older swimmers they were swimming 100's instead of a mix of distances and some were swimming 5 events over the day. The younger ones had to contend with swimming all strokes plus an IM over the meet. As usual they all rose to the challenge and did themselves proud. We saw some great swims, some fabulous techniques and in Cameron's case a fantastic balancing act on his backstroke turns as his goggles gave him extreme trouble from the very start! Talking goggles - Jess lost hers to around her neck on the start of her Fly but battled on for the whole distance and posted a very credible time we are very proud of. Keep up the good work as the benefits are now showing - remember overall have FUN! |
