A letter from Head Coach, Mary-Jane Ling .

WELCOME TO THE 2005/2006 SYNCHRO SWIM SEASON

I would like to thank you for your support as we venture into this season, which holds in store new challenges, excitement and rewards for our aspiring athletes.

The past swim season was more than extraordinary! Newmarket Synchro grew to the largest membership numbers ever, and reached many new heights. All swimmers at Recreational and Competitive levels were tested in record number for Star Levels, and everyone reached their goals, and many succeeded beyond their goals. Congratulations! Our teams saw great successes in every level of competition entered. At all meets, our athletes were on the podium, making us all very proud indeed. Some great highlights include our Tier 3 Team, our Tier 4/5 Combo Team and our Tier 5 Duet all earning Gold Medals and bringing home the trophies from Tier Championships! Our Watershows were amazing and a treat to look forward to as a great Club tradition. You all make us so very proud, and with our new Club records, you have set the bar high for next season .

Newmarket Synchro has established a sound reputation in the Synchro world, as well as in our communities. I have to thank the coaches and volunteers for their hard work and dedication, the athletes for their commitment and drive, and the parents for their support and understanding throughout the year. We will work very hard to ensure that the momentum and successes are maintained as we move forward to a bright new season. THANK YOU!

I hope everyone is as excited as I am about this season. I know it's going to be great! A lot of exciting new things will be happening, and we will maintain the key focuses of continued success at all levels, ongoing growth of our coaching staff, and improved communication within the Club.

A WEBSITE and E-MAIL

This website and email are our primary sources of information for members as well as for the outside world. They help tremendously in providing us with efficient and cost effective tools that we use to help better our communication to our member community, and provide the most current information possible to you. Please visit regularly and provide feedback and input to make it as effective as possible. Strong, successful communication depends on you to be an active part.

This year, we are offering recreational and competitive programs designed to meet the demanding and growing needs and abilities of all of our swimmers. Please understand that Club costs are fixed once teams are registered with Synchro Ontario , and teams are dependant on all athletes being committed and dedicated. Registration fees are non-refundable, and pro-rated refunds of program fees and fundraising commitments will be considered on an individual basis with a request in writing addressed to the head coach. No refunds will be considered after December 1, 2005 . Due to insurance liability requirements, no swimmer will be allowed to start training or be assured a position on a team, unless all registration fees, fundraising commitments and all forms are intact and signed as required. Appreciating the hectic schedules that we all face in our lives, I can only hope and encourage all of you to make the time to get involved in whatever activities, or events that you can. There is no more constructive or effective way to participate in making our mission a success. I look forward to your participation, and as a result, ensuring that we become a much more viable and involved synchro community.

We are working hard to make this season an exciting one. Please review the registration package carefully, and direct any questions you may have to newmarketsynchro@rogers.com

To our swimmers..welcome to the new season, and remember that you are why we are here. Your goals and aspirations define ours, and you will always be winners to us.
