>> Ready, Set, Synchro!

Head Coach Kerri Morgan looks forward to welcoming fully-registered Tier 6 & 7 athletes to pre-season training camp which will commence August 13. Participants can expect a challenging program designed to foster a sense of drive and determination during the 2½ week program that will culminate with team selection.

•  Week of Aug 13 – Full days (8:30am – 4pm) Alderwood Pool
•  Week of Aug 20 – Mornings Only (8am – noon) Sunnyside Outdoor Pool
•  Aug 27, 28 & 29 – Sunnyside Outdoor Pool; times TBA
•  Aug 31 & 31 – OFF

Week one will stress the importance of dryland conditioning as athletes participate in various outdoor training activities at Alderwood Pool before heading off to Toronto Gymnastics International (TGI) for 3 hours of instruction daily. In week two, camp moves to Sunnyside Outdoor Pool where athletes will hit the water for the first time this new season; 5 days of practice sessions that are shorter in duration but guaranteed to be a solid training regimen that will ensure athletes develop their endurance/cardio capacity! More of the same for the final three days of camp, plus skills development, stroke improvement and other training activities so that athletes are ready for the 2007/08 competitive season!!

Swimmers who participated in either the National Team Summer Camp or the 12&U Provincial Team Training Camp should contact Kerri Morgan to confirm when they are scheduled to report back for training, as dates may differ for those indicated above.
