FREE FLIP TURN STROKE CLINIC

Ever notice how some swimmers can swim uniterrupted laps by doing flip turns, but whenever you try to do a flip turn…you inhale pool water and cough up a storm?!

Whether you are learning how to do a freestyle flip turn for the first time, or just need pointers to help perfect your technique, come join us on February 28th for a FREE FLIP TURN clinic lead by our U.S. Masters Swimming Certified Coaches.

All swimmer levels are welcome as we will be learning flp turns “from the ground up.” – South City Family YMCA Masters Swimming

“Now it is time to turn the reins over to the younger generation”

A message from SLAM President, Lori Payne

 

Dear SLAM members,

     It has been my pleasure to serve you as St Louis Area Master’s Board President for many years, but now it is time to turn the reins over to the younger generation.
 
     I hope to see some new faces on the SLAM Board as masters swimming continues to be a force for all of us. We are all USMS members for different reasoons: competition, mental health, triathlons, fitness and much more.
      USMS has changed dramatically in the 31 years I have been a member, but one constant is the comradery amongst us, and for that I am so grateful. My logbook overflows with many wonderful adventures with my swim friends. 
        Thank you, I appreciate the opportunity to be a part of St Louis Area Masters.
