SUMMER SWIMMING
MAY - AUGUST​
​The summer is our fun season. We start training in May and really get going after school is out.
​
We work on stroke development, technical improvement and competitive skills. We work on all four strokes and we develop our skill for starts, turns and finishes.
​
On weekends we compete in local meets throughout our region and sometimes outside of it too. We host an annual home meet at the beautiful new Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre, WRASA WRACES and all our swimmers swim that weekend. It's really fun.
​
Toward the end of the season, we participate in the Fraser South Regional Championships and then the BC Provincial Championships.
