The FINS will be offering a spring
technique/endurance clinic, which is open to FINS and non-FINS
swimmers. It is a great opportunity to maintain and improve
conditioning developed through the season and focus on specific
technique issues to optimize swimming performance. Please e-mail Stasia Dionne at SStani@AOL.com, if you would like to
participate in Spring swimming.
The
FINS spring clinic will also be offered to novice
competitive swimmers ages 7-10 on Monday evenings
6:30-7:30 PM and Thursday evenings from 6 to 7 PM and Sunday
mornings from 9-10. This group will focus on proper stroke
technique in each of the four competitive strokes, as well as
starts and turns. This clinic will be geared toward young
athletes who are just beginning competitive swimming. It is NOT a
beginner swim lesson program! Novice swimmers must be able to
complete at least 25 yards of freestyle and backstroke.
This clinic is appropriate for current FINS in the Red
practice group as well as non-FINS who meet the above criteria.
Spots in the novice program will be available on a first-come,
first-served basis.
The clinic will run from
Monday, April 5 through June 5 (excluding New Hampshire school
vacation week (April 26th-May 1) and all practices will be held at
the Nashua Boys and Girls Club pool, as follows:
Technique:Monday & Wednesday mornings 5:30 AM - 6:30
AM
While the morning sessions will primarily focus on
technique, there will be a lane(s) available for endurance training
as well.
Endurance:Monday 6:30-8:30 PM & Thursday evenings 6:00
– 7:30 PM; Sunday mornings 9-11 AM
The weekday evening and Sunday morning sessions
will focus on endurance, with the exception of the novice
group.
The cost of clinic is
$150 per swimmer. Swimmers planning to swim in the evening will be
required to become a member of the Boys Club for $25.00/year and
will be required to check into the club with a membership
card.
As noted, this program is NOT restricted to
FINS swimmers. Non-FINS swimmers will be evaluated for
participation. As a baseline, swimmers should be able to swim 10 x
100’s on 2 minutes. If you know anyone who would like to
continue with swimming through spring, please invite them to join
us. The registration form is available under Documents on the FINS
website.
