Weekly Update PDF Print E-mail
Hello! This is the first practice update for the 2010-2011 swim season. Each week you will receive an update from me via email that will also be posted on our website. The update will always include the upcoming practice schedule, meet information, and other important reminders. Please let me know if there are additional emails that I need to add to the list.
 
Practice will start for all groups on Tuesday, September 7. Again, all swimmers will need at least 2 pairs of the following at practice: goggles, suits, and caps. Swimmers will also need a pair of fins. Gold & Silver group swimmers are encouraged to get a mesh bag to store their training gear. Training gear can be attained from Sport Fair in Arlington, Aardvark Swim & Sport in Rockville, or Underwater Wear in Gaithersburg.

It is very important that ALL swimmers bring non-perishable water bottles to practice this year. Swimmers that like sport drinks during practice are encouraged to buy them in the powder form.
 
The first few days of practice may be hectic as we place swimmers in lanes and balance out the groups. Please bear with us during this time. Things always work out as we settle into our practice routine.

The following is the practice schedule for the week of Tuesday, September 7 through Sunday, September 12. Please note that there will be no weekday morning practices next week - they will start the week of September 13. Also, ALL swimmers will need to enter the facility through the front doors in the evening. The back door will only be used for practices that start before 6:00am.

Last Open House on September 8 PDF Print E-mail

  Want to keep swimming all winter?  Do you want to swim fast?

Come find out what all the excitement is about the world renowned Curl Burke's newest site in Maryland at the state of the art facility at Georgetown Prep.

Please come to our last Open House on Wednesday, September 8 at 6:30pm  at the Georgetown Prep pool.  Please bring your suit and be ready to swim so that we can ensure you are properly placed. 

The Open House will be an excellent opportunity to meet the new Head Coach of the Prep site:  Yuri Suguiyama.  Yuri joins CUBU coaches Richard Rosenthal, Susan Williams and Matt Mongelli.  

Before joining the Prep staff, Coach Yuri was the Head Coach of CUBU's  Holton-Arms Facility.   Under his direction and energy, the program at Holton blossomed.   In 2007, 20 Holton athletes qualified for Junior Olympics and seven athletes scored  354 points.     At the 2010 Junior Olympics,  50 Holton athletes qualified and 16  athletes scored 896.5 points.  

This year, swimmers whom Yuri coaches had 11 times that are on the Top 100 All Time list (including 2 in the top 10).  They have 17 times in the Top 20 for this year (including four that are first in the Country).  They have broken numerous PVS records,  been named PVS Outstanding Athletes, and been High Point at the Tom Dolan Invitational and Junior Olympics.    Katie Ledecky has been coached by Coach Yuri for 2 and a half years.  To read about a Reach for the Wall article about Katie, please click here:   Age Only a Number for Ledecky and Conger

Coach Yuri grew up a Curl Burke Swimmer.  He was, among many other things, an Olympic Trials Qualifier, CUBU record holder, Metros record holder, and on the all time top 100 list himself.  He went on to swim at UNC where he was an All-American.

Coaches Yuri, Richard, Susan and Matt are looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday.
