Swim Season Is 4 Days Away...

Just out of Water Polo and into swimming again. The Water Polo team I was competing with finished 1st in the year end tournament in Kamloops BC. It was very fun, we played teams from Vancouver Island and Calgary (Calgary had 2 seperate teams). We played the second game of the tournament againt the Calgary Torpedoes they were a tough team but not nearly as tough as the Calgary Wild. We won the games against the Torpedoes both times. After that game we had a one game break then we played the team from Vancouver Island: Sanich Water Polo School, If we win this we are in the Gold Medal Game. We beat them easily. "We are in" my coach said and then we went back to the hotel for the night. Sunday: Our game is at 2:00 PM We are playing Calgary Wild (they have 2 TEAM CANADA!!! players.) everyone thinks we are going to lose but we don't we beat them by 11-9 I think. That tied up the year pretty well I thought. Now something more recent my swim season.

This summer I am in Divison 4. I get to swim 200m IM,100m Breaststroke (not happy about that one...) and 100m Backstroke. In the SFU swim camp I talked about in my last entry I was able to do 3 winter competitions and swam all of those events and more like 100m Butterfly, 200m Freestyle etc. I loved swimming all the events but Breaststroke events. Why?, Because I HATE Breaststroke so much I would rather swim 1500m BUTTERFLY! Anyways this year will be harder for me at Provincials because their are 14 year olds who's birthday is before April 30th I think. So I will be racing people a year older than me. Fun right?

Hope you enjoy this post,
