November Swimmers of the Month!
Congratulations to the November, 2009 Swimmers of the Month:
National Senior/Senior
Callum Ross
Callum Ross is the NS & SR swimmer of the month for November.
He swam 4 best times in 5 events at the Canada Cup meet this November at the Etobicoke Olympium. His biggest drop came in the 400 IM where he improved over 8 seconds from a 4:42.99 to a 4:34.59. He was able to make this leap because he is always at workout and he works very hard while he is there.
Congratulations Callum and keep up the good work.

Abby Keeble
Abby Keeble is swimmer of the month for November because of her fantastic effort this season! She has tried to make every practice so far this year. Abby has put a lot of effort into correcting her technique, and it has really paid off. She has improved in all four strokes! Abby is working hard on her pull through the water and her whip kick. She is always positive and ready to work hard. Abby had amazing results at the Newmarket meet and we wish her good luck for the rest of the swim season!
Way to go Abby! Keep up the awesome work!
