New Aquatics Policy:

TEST * MARk * PROTECTAt the SouTH SHoRE YMCA we are committed to keep-

ing all patrons as safe as possible while swimming. As

such we will be implementing a new protocol in our

Aquatics Department called Test * Mark * Protect. All

children under 14 will be given a swim Test. Based on

the swim test, or their age, individuals will be given a

colored bracelet to Mark what areas of the pool they

may use. using this system will help us Protect the

children who use our pool.

Swim test results will be stored in our system and members will receive a colored

membership tag, to bring with them to the pool to receive their bracelet. This

will allow a convenient way to know each child’s color and swim ability each

time they arrive at our pool or the Y. Swim tests will not need to happen every

time you come to swim unless the individual or child wants to try for a higher

level or the swim ability has changed drastically.

For questions or more detailed information regarding this program,

SOUTH SHORE YMCA strypers swim team“we don’t want to create champions, but to create an environment in which champions are inevitable.”

About Us: Under the leadership of Australian Director Tim Mulvihill, the Strypers swim team is committed to making every swimmer

matter. Our primary goal is to provide a safe environment for our members and to help them develop the tools they need to grow

personally and athletically. We actively promote the four core values of Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility. This enables

our members to develop in a competitive team environment to be successful in swimming and in life.

safety to the foundation principles of competitive swimming. The aim of this squad is to master the FuNdamentals of swimming.

Gold Squad – This group is designed to build on the basic skills developed in the Silver Squad. Swimmers in the gold squad will

have their stroke technique refined and advanced, will learn to train and wil also be introduced to greater aerobic conditioning.

Dryland training is introduced at this level.

Age Junior Squad – The Age Junior group transitions swimmers toward the competitive Age Group program. In addition to increased

athleticism, swimmers will also learn the importance of training in relation to performance.

Age Group Squad – The Age Group is a highly important developmental training group in the SSYS swimming program. This squad is a

key transition point as swimmers move from a foundation of swimming principles toward the expectations of the senior training program.

Swimmers can expect to be in this group for a number of seasons. A comprehensive dry land program is introduced at this level.

Senior II Squad – The Senior II Squad in the SSYS program is the highest level training group that practices primarily at the SSYMCA

MY Y STORYPersonal Training

As an individual who joined a formal gym setting

two years ago, I had no experience on how to exercise effectively. One day

at the gym I was asked by one of the trainers if I was interested in joining

the wOw, work Out of the week class. I learned so much regarding how

to exercise properly during this 8 week class and when combined with my

10 lb. weight loss and 4.55% reduction in body fat, I could not have been

happier. I hit a plateau before I joined the class and smashed through it!

I cannot wait to take the class again in the Fall, it was fantastic.
