Inside King's-Edgehill School

During the first half of April, 11 clubs representing close to 300 swimmers from across Nova Scotia raced officially sanctioned meets in their home pools.  Times were sent to Swim NS, tabulated, and the results posted this week.  In our first Provincial Championship meet, KES Swimming has a lot to be proud of and plenty of reasons to be positive about our potential.

Although the ski training season looked different this year due to a warm winter weather pattern combined with the effects of COVID-19, the team enjoyed skiing and training together whenever they could. Our athletes learned to deal with varying conditions and varying temperatures throughout the season, including a few glorious days of fresh powder, some spring skiing conditions, and even a few rain days on snow.  The team worked on individual ski technique improvement and gate training, edge control, dynamic movement, tucks, tuck turns, starts, skating, and finishes.  We even had the good fortune to pull together one regional race which was held at Martock!

Our snowboard team had an incredible and exhausting day at the hill. Our riders had to adapt to all weather conditions. We arrived to spring conditions, and no cloud in sight. Slowly but steadily, the clouds came in and we got some fresh snow on our icy giant slalom course.
