Future Royals 3
It was another fantastic week at the pooll! We had some during dryland activities making sure the kids had a chance to learn each others' name- they did amazing! In the pool, we spent time working on our streamline position off the wall, strengthening our flutter kicking (with & without fins) and reviewing backstroke drills. We also continued working drills with the snorkel during some of our practice time and the FR 3's are definitely becoming more comfortable using them! We also introduced flipturns for freestyle and backstroke and will revisit those again this week. We will turn our sights to butterfly drills this week- my personal favorite!!
Please make sure swimmers have their swimming equipment they need for training-they can leave their mesh bag at the pool or take it home each practice. Please make sure that their items are labeled with their name with a Sharpie. Now is a great time to check and see if anything needs to be replaced (fins too small?, snorkel broken?). Here is the link to the training gear needed.
On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays, we will be doing dryland before getting into the pool. They need to have dryland clothes ready to wear- I would prefer them to wear an SSC shirt, shorts OR athletic pants over their suit. They will need to have tennis shoes to participate in dryland activities. NO CROCS (EVEN IN “SPORT MODE”) WILL BE ALLOWED.
