Cumming Waves take 3rd Place in NGSL League Championships!

The NGSL League Championships took place this past weekend. Coach Kris, Coach Lisa & Coach Cassie were so proud of our swimmers. They saw many swimmers turn in their best times; some swam strokes that they had never competed in before; and some swimmers really caught the Wave of competition and rode it for all it was worth!!. It has been so rewarding to see the swimmers mature over the short summer season progressing from "head out of the water" to swimming a 50 and doing a flip turn.

As the coaches watched the warm-ups with the group in the water en-mass they could see the advancement of all the swimmers' skill level. It is truly rewarding to see how far each swimmer has changed and watched the confidence as if matured over the summer.

Coach Kris does not have the individual results ready to post as they have not arrived from the meet managers yet. But, , , ,

Large Group

  • Sting Rays 1st
  • Jefferson Sea Dragons 2nd
  • Cumming Waves 3rd

Coach Kris can't say enough how proud she was about the efforts that our swimmers put forth and how hard they worked. This meet is truly a "team effort" competition where swimmers go for it for the team and put themselves secondary.
