YMCA New England’s 2011 Updated

Posted on November 2, 2010 by Andy Scherer

As a quick update and note to swimmers and parents, the YMCA New England Regional Championship will be held (pending final approval) the weekend of March 25th through March 27th. I have posted the qualifying times for this meet on our swim meet schedule, but you can also find them here: 2011 YMCA New England Regional Qualifying Times.

For those of you who need more information on this meet, this meet either requires the swimmer to meet a qualifying time or participate on a relay team to attend. We plan on having relay teams for all age groups attend and will communicate those relay teams and individual qualifiers as we near closer to the end of our regular season.

Should anyone have questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to let me know.

Happy Swimming and Go Typhoons!

Hamden North Haven YMCA Swim Team – New England’s

Posted on March 17, 2009 by Andy Scherer

The Hamden North Haven YMCA Swim Team has their final meet of the short course season this weekend in Boston, MA at the New England Regional Championships. The Typhoons did extremely well this year throughout all of their meets and we had 5 of our swimmers who were able to swim qualifying times for the championships. We will also be bringing 3 relay teams with us to enjoy the meet!

All the best to those swimmers competing this weekend, and I look forward to seeing everyone have fun!

Upcoming Meet Against Waterbury YMCA

Posted on November 11, 2008 by Andy Scherer

I hope everyone enjoyed their day off today from swimming! As a quick update on last weekend’s meet, we did have one swimmer qualify for New England’s in all 3 individual events that he swam. We also had several swimmers come within 1 second of qualifying which is outstanding news that was completely unexpected for our first meet of the year. So, again, congratulations to those swimmers!

These upcoming couple of days will be another peak yardage (around 6,000 yards for Seniors, 5,000 yard for Juniors, and 3,000 yards for the Gold group). I would highly encourage everyone in the Junior and Senior groups to attend Friday’s practice(s) as we are primarily working on stroke and racing technique prior to the meet. The Gold group had a great turnout last Friday so thank you parents and swimmers for that!

I cannot describe how proud I am of everyone’s improvement thus far, and cannot wait to see how well we do at this weekend’s meet against the Waterbury YMCA Swim Team!! So, until tomorrow….Go Hamden North Haven YMCA Typhoons!!
