Swim practices this week
Looking at the weather for tonight the temperatures are dropping and the rain chances are rising. I will be keeping a close eye on the weather and will let everybody know if practices are cancelled at least 30 minutes before the scheduled practice times. For practice on Wednesday there is a CAL coaches meeting that I will be attending, so there will be no practice that night.
Below I have links to videos showing swim techniques on each stroke. I recommend all swimmers, new and old, to watch these videos as a reminder for techniques. I also have a workout for swimmers to do when we don't have practices. I highly encourage everyone to complete these workouts.
