From the Coach

 Aggregate Nights Term 4 2011

i would like to see all state and national swimmers participating in at least 2 of these nights each term.This Friday is the 1st Aggregate night for the term and it also happens to be the 22nd Birthday of “Jack of all trades” Nick Findeisen. I would encourage as many of you as possible to come along this Friday for some racing and to also celebrate Nicks Birthday! Entries in by 6.pm with racing starting around 6.15pm. The night usually concludes around 7.30pm.

 Upcoming Swim meets

Don’t forget to get your entries in for the upcoming meets. These are listed on the web site as well as posted on the noticeboard at the pool.

As we approach the 2011 State Championships swimmers will be looking for race practice and opportunities to gain state and national qualifying times. I strongly recommend that swimmers consider swimming in more 100m and 200m events at these meets. The 200m Medley should be an event included in your event selection at most meets.   Keep an eye on the web site and speak with your coaches about which events you should be entering for each meet.

 See you around the pool!

To all State and National Squad Members

Over the coming weeks training is set to intensify, please ensure you are on top of your recovery  by eating well, getting enough sleep at night and balancing your activities. Please keep in touch with Narelle or myself should you be struggling with mantaining your activities. This includes school work! We will adjust your program as required.

Support Services

We are starting to secure access to individual support staff that will work with the team. At this stage if you are requiring any information or assistance on Nutrition feel free to contact Kerry Otto. Please let her know you are with the Firbank Aquastars.

Nigel Mitchell has been assisting the team with screening. If you require any assistance with treatment for injury or you are worried about injury prevention please contact Nigel. Also please make sure that you are communicating with your coach about using these services.
