After having very big teams and many top 3 team finishes last decade, we have been in rebuild mode since the pandemic. 2024 was a critical year for our new foundation. It has been very exciting to see the seeds of a new generation of dominant swimmers take root. Last year, we saw a lot of those seeds begin to sprout! The next-gen Flyers have a lot of promise!

After decades in our treasured CCVSC, the league folded after the 2017 season due to loss of a few teams. We did alright for ourselves as independents, but it just makes sense to have a league with our local swim teams. Sadly, our new league has already lost three teams; we hope it continues and we are able to add teams going forward.

Dual meets are still great for working on the little things that go with races. The big meets are our chance to swim in much better pools against improved competition. The big time drops will come at the big meets. City Meet is the one that our entire team goes to; yet attending some of the other big meets is crucial to making mid-season time drops.

Battle of the Ages is a great way to see how you’re doing early in the season. It’s a fast pool and you only swim against people your own age. There are three events each day, so even swimming one day means you can get in 3 swims. After a long absence, we returned to ECI and captured third place! This has always been a favorite meet for us because swimmers could swim EVERY event. We want to have an even bigger turnout and result this year! We are returning to the Devil Mountain Pentathlon this year. Another meet where you swim all 5 things, but this time, it’s all in one day. They add up your five times to see where everyone stands.

Torture Week only pays off if you have a meet to swim in after the taper. The taper is vital to be at your best. After four long months of training, your body needs the easy swimming to perform at its peak in the two big meets. The coaching staff wants to help you become the swimmers you can be; but it starts with you. Ask us how you can get better! We encourage parents to attend and watch practices. However, we can’t have parents interrupting swimmers or coaches during practice. The coaches need to be able to coach and the swimmers need to be able to swim, without distraction. Just like every other thing in life, what you get out of swimming is what you put into it. Being late or only coming a couple times a week will not pay off. Your times at the end of the season should be much faster than earlier in the season. But only if you have put in the work.

City Meet is our big end of year meet. This is where you really see your times drop significantly. Every measure needs to be taken for every swimmer to be available for this meet. The coaches train, plan, and prepare ALL YEAR so that the swimmers will be at their peak at the end of the year. We taper you so that you are fully rested for City, (and County if you qualify).

Speaking of County, we had a very exciting County Meet last year! With over double the number of qualifying swimmers from 2023, we tied for first in Division 3 in 2024. It won’t be long until we are back on top of Division 2!

Remember, practice doesn’t make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. Simple things like getting enough sleep before meets, eating right, and working hard go a long way in helping to achieve your goals. Swimming may be more of an individual sport. Never forget, every swimmer matters to the team!

We can’t wait to see all the hard work bear fruit for our Flyers in 2025!
