The CCSU Masters Swim program started up again.
For those that get up early the practices are on Tuesdays and Thursday mornings from 5:30 - 7:00 am.
For those that are more sane, there's also a practice on Sunday afternoons from 2:00-4:00pm.
The pool is on the Central campus in New Britian at the Jack Suydam Natatorium/Kaiser gym. Free parking in the lots.
The practices are open for everyone (no need to be a HEAT members) of all abilities. There are 6 lanes.
You can't beat the price. $5 for a walk-in or purchase a 15 session pass for $45. (that's only $3 a session)
For those new to "masters swimming", these are informal practices. A suggested workout will be posted and people of similar ability share a lane (if needed). There's no pressure to do the full (or any part of) the workout. This year Bill Ball (Head Coach of CCSU Swim team and Jr program) is running more formal individualized workouts and offering coaching.
It's mostly HEAT members who swim and will help you get comfortable.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact Bill Ball at Central - ballb@mail.ccsu.edu
Time to get back in the pool.
