The Swimming North Coast Development Day was held at Crescent Head on Sunday 7^th August. We were very fortunate to have such lovely weather during the Day. The Day was attended by over 40 swimmers from the North Coast Area. Swimmers had the opportunity to receive instruction from our team of coaches and had the ability to utilise some great coaching tools such as; underwater camera’s and touch pads to measure the response time at the wall to enhance the swimmers turns. Peter Clarke from Healthier You in Port Macquarie presented to swimmers and parents the benefits of good nutrition for pre, post and during a meet performance plus an overview of the benefits of a balanced diet and the importance of hydration. Swimmers also enjoyed a dryland session with Crescent Head Coach Mason Marchment and had the opportunity to compete in a mini meet. A fun and productive day was had by all in attendance. It was also great to see that the new formation of the North Coast area has provided families with a location option depending on their availability and geography.  Swimming North Coast wishes to thank the members of the Development Committee for arranging the Day and also our generous hosts at Crescent Head pool Mason and Renee Marchment. We also wish to extend our sincere thanks to Pierse Pool Supplies for providing us with the technical equipment and also Noreast drinks for their generous supply of drinks for the day. 

Selection criteria will be posted for next year’s Development teams so be sure to train hard and secure your place in next year’s Swimming North Coast Development Teams.   See Photos.
