News for SWIM PARENTS "That's Not It!" Another interesting and timely article for Swim Parents has been posted. A thought provoking: "Kids lives are too easy, too soft, too catered-for. Too many people carry them, make excuses for them, never allowing them to try to be heroic." What do you think?

Summer Classic Invitational at Nassau Aquatic Center 108 Swim All Best Times - Total Time Improvement 44 min and 64 sec Individual results Meet results Pictures by Sian's dad (pw tvsc) For most of the 147 TVSC athletes, who competed this weekend at the Summer Classic, it was the first long course meet of the season (50 meter instead of a 25 yard course). Without any long course training, 108 swam all best times. For many swimmers the time drops in their events compared to last long course season, were amazing: total time improvement was 2,678 seconds! TVSC athletes raced 641 times and 93 ot these races resulted in time drops of 10 seconds or more! In six races swimmers dropped 30 seconds of time or more and 83% of all races resulted in best times. While these are great accomplisments, this is expected of "non-veteran" senior swimmers. Novice, Junior and "rookie" Senior swimmers have not competed in long course since July or August of last year and with 9+ months of training since last summer they should be much faster. However, if "veteran" senior swimmers are swimming all best times, then there is something wrong with their training . . . . . Seniors are currently in their heaviest training cycle of the long course season, and they are tired (overtrained) and are not expected to swim best times (in their best events). Senior swimmers will be rested / tapered for their end-of-the season long course championships meets, like JOs, Sr Mets, Zones and/or Sectionals and they are expected to swim all best times at those meets. The goals for senior swimmers this part of the long course season are: (1) to swim faster than last year's Summer Classic, and (2) get as close to your best times as you can (+1 ~ 2 sec per 100). However, if you swam 5 seconds above your best time in a 100, simply means you did not try very hard. Seniors, great job if you were close to your best times at this meet and faster than last year after all the hard training over the last six weeks -- you are on your way to a great long course season! The long course season is short and first 6 weeks have passed, only 8 more weeks to go. There is no long course Silver championship, so, your goals for this season should be (1) qualify for JOs, Sr Mets, Zone and/or Sectionals and (2) get a long course IMX score. For many the only long course meets left to qualify for JOs are the four Wednesday night Jr Mets meets.
