The Coach´s Report

I would like to welcome you all to the Carina Leagues Cjs Swim Club, for the 2011/2012 season.
My aim is to build and develop this club into one of the most successful in Queensland. I want the kids and families to enjoy the experience and encourage all kids to be the best they can be. I hope to give them the opportunity to achieve this.

It is important we all remember it is a sport and we are here to enjoy ourselves.

So please get involved with the club because if we can all work together and enjoy the adventure ahead, there will be some great times.

Thank you to the outgoing committee and welcome to many new faces on this years committee.

Simply running club nights takes many hands.

If you are unsure of any matter at all, please do not hesitate to contact me with regard to training or competition matters or President Rowan Bate regarding club matters.

All members are welcome to attend committee meetings.

My goals for this year are obviously to maintain our competition standing but basically for all participants to enjoy their sport and for them to strive to be the best that they can be – remember this takes time.

My aim is to find a balance between swimming, family, school and friends. This will give the kids the best chance to reach thier full potential.

If these components do not combine or mix or if something is amiss with any one component, the athlete will not swim well.  Excellent time management skills are required and as the athlete gets older they need to combine more swim sessions with more study.  By the time they are undertaking year 11 & 12 this system should be running like a well oiled machine with little disruption to their program.

Enjoy your swimming and have a great season.

Coach Mark Davies.
