Andrea is a textbook example of a great young athlete that shows commitment and perseverance. She has become an amazing young woman right in front of our eyes!  All of her coaches, past and present, agree that she is fun to coach and a pleasure to know!  Andrea is also showing herself to be a strong leader and a remarkable team mate.  She is an important part of our Junior Team and HP Program.  Congrats to Andrea for being named HP athlete of the month!

Jasmine is on Renee’s 13 and under Provincial team. She has been nominated for showing outstanding perseverance when it comes to learning new skills! Athletes in her age group are expected to perform all of the same figures at meets this year, regardless of if you compete in the National or Provincial stream. This meant that our team had a lot of new and difficult skills to master, in not a lot of time! Spinning was difficult for Jasmine to learn at first, but she was committed to improving and never gave up on herself. Great job Jasmine! You’ve improved so much!”

Sophie is a member of our 11-12 HP team. Sophie has been consistently working hard in and out of the pool to achieve her goals. She was both mentally and physically prepared for the last two competitions. She was honest about her nerves but remained confident and in control. Throughout training and the competition, Sophie received feedback well. She created a solid plan which she followed and made adjustments to throughout the meets. Coach Steph says that all of these strong and practiced mental and physical skills lead Sophie to multiple successful performances in both figures and routine.

Way to go, Sophie!

 

Madeline is on our 10U Provincial team. Coach Jenn says Madeline has improved so much since last season. She went into the Lisa A figure meet and Waterloo Invitational with confidence, a positive attitude and was very focused on what she needed to achieve. During the warm-ups she listened well, and stayed in the shallow end to ensure she was ready to perform her best. Madeline followed her plans and was a positive influence to her team members! 

Way to go, Madeline!
