ASC Families,

We are into the final phases of the school year and now shifting some training times for Bronze, Gold, and Senior groups. In many ways though, we are just hitting some great phases of training and practicing. The swimmers are looking great in the water following the last competition and the coaching staff is looking forward to the next chance to have our swimmer race.

 

The grid below has us covered until we restart again in August. Coaches will update groups if there's any need to change from what is below.

RESTART AUGUST: Senior Group: August 4, Bronze, Silver, Gold, August 9.  Competitions are slated to begin in August and occur each month. 

Team Masks - Each swimmer who came this past week received a mask.   They have adjustable straps and they wash well!  There are some extras available for $5.00. Let us know if you'd like one (or more).

 

Academy Swim Club Code of Conduct/SAFE SPORT - 

As it has been a while for many of you since you registered your swimmer for the program, please take the time to review the ASC Code of Conduct/Honor policy HERE.  Here are other resources from USA Swimming and the US Center for Safe Sport. Click HERE Here are some other opportunities for SAFE SPORT TRAINING FOR PARENTS

COVID-19 Academy Swim Club Travel Policy 

  • Click HERE to view our policy for athletes traveling off-island or households with members who have traveled from off-island. This policy is in effect until May 21, 2021. The school will issue new requirements.

SWIMMING GEAR WITH TYR - USE OUR DISCOUNT CODE: “Academy25” The more this code is used, the more free gear ASC will earn in return.

  • ASC has entered an agreement with TYR whereas all new purchases of suits and equipment are through TYR. In exchange, ASC has this 25% discount code "Academy25" to be used on TYR.com. TYR will be able to track ASC purchases and when we hit benchmarks in sales, will result in additional bonuses for the team. Independent of purchases, ASC will receive some coaching attire, new banners and for those swimmers who make Senior Sectionals, Futures, Jr' Nationals, or USA Senior Nationals, they will be outfitted by TYR.

  • Girl's Suit: Please purchase the PHOENIX WOMEN'S SPLICE DIAMOND FIT in navy/white or GIRLS smaller sizes in navy/white.

  • Boy's Suit: Please purchase the MEN'S PHOENIX JAMMER TYR BOYS PHOENIX JAMMER or the TYR BOYS PHOENIX RACER in navy/white.

  • Goggles - Your choices but recommended are three different styles for beginning, intermediate and advanced levels of competition and training. CLICK HERE FOR THE RECOMMENDATIONS. All TYR Goggles are available to view here. 

  • Note:  12/under swimmers are not permitted to wear technical suits (taped seems) I do not want 13 and over swimmers racing in them (tech suits) until there are championship or off-island meets available. These suits will be great for team pride and performance in practice and non-championship meets. We are going with the Navy/White colors for our suits and we will be offering a group order at the beginning of each month. If your swimmer is not in need of one now, we ask that when they do need one, you buy our team suit on the TYR site, if possible.

All for now,

Stay safe!

Coach Mark
