Zama Tsunamis First Swim Meet!



Madeline and Gracie both swam in a relay! It was Gracie's first relay! She was the first in the pool with her speedy backstroke. Madeline swam the 100 meter Freestyle. She did a great job! It was her first 100! I think if she builds her endurance up, she'll be a force to be reckoned with!














We had our first swim meet this week at Atsugi Navy Base. There were four teams that competed! The two Navy teams were huge compared to our little team of 12! But, our team had a ball and I was hoarse after a day filled with screaming and cheering! The girls did a great job and we had a lot of fun. Next month, we'll compete against an international team! Hopefully, our suits will come in! We did have fun wearing our swim caps and jackets! Steve drew tsunamis on all the girls' backs!
I can't wait to see their times! I think they have improved a lot from this past summer. Madeline was competing against 12 and 13 year olds and holding her own! They both look so good in the water!
