2015 -2016 MEMBERSHIP PACKAGE Cascade Swim Club Calgary’s Premiere Competitive Swim Team

WELCOME TO THE 2015-2016 SWIMMING SEASON WITH THE CASCADE SWIM CLUB The 2014-15 Cascade swimming season was a very strong year for us with many milestones making up our successful year. This past season saw Cascade swimmers achieve selection to many international, national junior & youth initiatives as well as provincial representative teams. Additionally the program stretched its wings and travelled with a group of swimmers to Osaka, Japan and the Itoman Swim program where we trained with their swimmers, lived in their dorms, ate their food, worked with their coaches and competed in their club championships. This outreach program was very successful and we were able to bring back many of those lessons learned into our own program. The international highlight for the Cascade Swim Club was to see Cascade swimmers Morgan Bird and Yuri Kisil earn selection to the Canadian National team to attend both the Toronto Pan/Para-Pan American Games as well as the World/Para-World Championships in Kazan & Glasgow respectively. Yuri Kisil was also part of Canada’s historical bronze medal performance at the World Championships in one of the newest international events – the mixed (men’s & women’s) 4x100m Freestyle Relay. Morgan Bird had an outstanding Para Pan Am meet winning two gold medals in the 50 and 400 free and a silver medal in the 100 free. At the recent Summer National championships in Pointe Claire the Cascade swimmers won 4 gold medals with Ingrid Wilm winning both the 50 backstroke and then tying for gold with her teammate, Brooklynn Snodgrass, in the women’s 100 backstroke (a unique outcome that in all my years of coaching was a “first ever” – seeing two teammates tie for the gold). The Cascade women’s 4 x 100 medley relay also won the gold medal in the 3rd fastest time ever by a Canadian club team (Ingrid backstroke, Bronwyn Pasloski breaststroke, Taryn Pratt fly and Brooklynn freestyle). At the National Age Championships in Quebec City in July Cascade had a great meet with a series of great performances put up by Alex Katelnikoff winning four gold medals (200, 400 and 1500 and the 5 km open water championships). As I write this welcome letter the Cascade swimmers have just finished their final competition –the Western Canada Games – in Fort McMurray. This competition pits our Alberta swimmers against the best 14 to 17 years of age swimmers from Western Canada. Cascade had 5 swimmers at the meet: Kade Wist and Henry Jubenvill, Ingrid Wilm and Taryn Pratt in the pool swimming as well as Jake Armstrong in triathlon. Throughout the competition the Cascade program swam brilliantly winning a total of 22 medals and recording many personal best performances. The program dimension of performing at their best in the championship season in the end game situation is a desired and sought after outcome and this Cascade characterstic was alive and well throughout these major events . On the triathlon front Emily Wagner was selected to the Canadian team by virtue of a second place finish at the national championships and she is in her final preparations for the World Junior Championships in Chicago in early September. As we go forward with our program CASCADE is developing into a strong contributor to the story of swimming on the city, provincial, national and world stage. We are playing in the big leagues of swimming and we can, and we have to, continue to lift our game at all levels in the club. The 2015-16 swimming season is in front of us. Being an Olympic year with the Games set for Rio de Janerio in August of next year the swim season takes on little bit of extra luster as the world’s top swimmers focus their attention on the Olympic Games. In the fourth year of the quadrennial the calendar for our club season will focus on the Alberta Provincial Championships, the Western Canadian Open, the Canadian Olympic Trials, as well as the Senior National and Age National championships. The Age Group section of the program is showing exciting development and many new faces are appearing in the provincial and national rankings across the entire program. The strong Cascade system will bring development of the next generation of Cascade excellence to the forefront as we build toward Tokyo 2020 Wow, what an exciting time for Cascade and swimming. The Cascade program prides itself on building great people who are also great citizens and representatives of their family, the swim community, their community, Calgary, Alberta, Canada and of course the Cascade Swim Club. With the Cascade model embracing Canada’s sport for life philosophy and Long Term Athlete Development principles the well structured continuum of the program, the excellent coaching of the swimming program offered by Cascade, and the great spirit of the swimmers, their parents and the Board of Directors has positioned Cascade as one of the leading Canadian programs and the industry standard for swimming . Your Cascade swimmers will learn excellent values, life skills and disciplines and as well will be in one the world’s leading swimming performance programs. Led by our excellent senior coaching staff: Wendy Johnson, Ildi Deliu, Marc Tremblay Jasen Pratt, Kristina Crook, Stefan Pripoae and Kimmie Kraft the Cascade program has a strong base of swimmers competing from the grass roots level through to the provincial representative teams, all the way up to the Youth, Junior and Senior Canadian National Teams. Swimmers will experience the wonderful lessons to be learned from being challenged and trained under the tutelage of our staff and will share in the excitement of our cutting edge approach. Looking forward to seeing you on the deck and for a successful continuation of the CASCADE way. Swimming Faster, Swimming better

2015-2016 MEMBERSHIP PACKAGE MESSAGE FROM THE CLUB MANAGER Welcome to the 2015-2016 Swimming Season! It’s always exciting here at the Cascade Swim Club and last year was full of its fair share of exciting moments. Yuri Kisil and Morgan Bird represented Canada at the very highest levels of World and Para-World swimming winning both medals and acclaim for themselves, their country and the support networks they represent. That support network that helped them achieve those heights is their family, their friends, their teammates, their coaches & staff as well the extended Cascade family of which we are all a part of. I hope that you all feel very proud of those athletes that go on and represent our city, our club, our province and our country at the very highest levels as you all played a contributing role in their accomplishments. Be proud of your club and be proud as Cascade continues to shine around the world. Cascade also had a lot success last season with our expanded novice program which continues to grow every year and add new young swimmers into the Cascade family. Our “Swim School” programs which are our “Learn-To-Competitive-Swim” program gives these swimmers, first and foremost, the needed lifeskill of being able to swim then, second, all the skills that they need to be a successful competitive swimmer. As the numbers continue to grow we are continuing to try and find space for all our swimmers and have been fortunate to gain a little ground at at least one of our facilities this year, the Mount Royal pool. This is timely as our new “Senior Select” and “Senior XT” programs continue to grow while on the other side of things we are forced to deal with Canyon Meadows pool being closed for two seasons. We have been able to rework the scheduling so as minimize the impact of the programming changes we have been forced to make and are confident that those changes will have minimal negative impact. One positive outcome of all this is that more of our swimmers will be able to enjoy the benefits of the fantastic world-class facility and the amenities offered here at the Talisman Centre. What’s Else is New This Year? A few quick bullet points for everyone on what has been changed, added or upgraded for the 2015-16 season: • Mandatory Membership Points: We will be using a quarterly system this year instead of two seasons • As mentioned last year all competitive swimmers will be ordering a team parka this year as a part of mandatory kit • The Officiating Deposit requirement has changed slightly - members will have to now become certified in one level I or level II course each season with certified following the Swim AB guidelines for being certified (doing the course and working the role on deck) and the new policy document will be listed on the website • Acadia: All Swim School 1, 2, 3 and Junior Olympic Way programs are being run at AC pool this year • Talisman: All 10&U & Age Group 3 programs are being run out of the Talisman this year (except Sat AM AG3) Hopefully everyone is having a great summer enjoying this heat and is raring to go come September 14th!

“IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT GROUP YOU ARE IN - IT MATTERS WHAT YOUR GROUP DOES” - DIRECTOR OF SWIMMING, DAVID M. JOHNSON Performance Programs - (LTAD - Training to Train, Training to Compete, Competing to Win) This group is broadly described as having a focus on the competitions held on the National scene with major competitions that include the National Senior Championships, the Age Group National Championships and Western Canadian Championships. Head Coach Dave Johnson will coach and oversee these swimmers and their respective coaches Wendy Johnson, Ildi Deliu and Will Van Middendorp. After the season begins, swimmers will be placed into smaller cohesive sub-groups with a specific coach who will oversee their season and training program; however all Talisman centre swimmers and coaches may work together at various points in the season. This fluid programming will demand that our swimmers develop the skill of being “coachable”. Programs will be implemented that are commensurate with training requirements, competency levels, event requirements and the swimmers individual needs and goals. Swimmers may also be asked to adjust their training schedule at times when the Head Coach calls for specialized workouts. Age Group Programs - Senior Select, Age Group 1, 2 (LTAD - Learning to Train, Training to Train) These three groups are generally focused on qualifying for and competing at the regional and Provincial “A” levels while at the same time working to attain national standards such as Westerns and Age Group National qualifying times. These groups have a base number of workouts with access to additional training with the Talisman groups as individually required. Swimmers in these groups will still spend a great deal of training time working on developing their strokes and skills; at the same time increasing fitness and endurance. Dryland conditioning will also be a key element of these groups. Age Group 3, 10 & Under Program (LTAD - Fundamentals, Learning to Train) This group of 10 & Under swimmers are generally focused on developing excellent technical skills, improving aerobic fitness and developing body awareness and coordination. These swimmers will have a program designed to enhance their chance of a successful and lengthy swimming career. Competitions will be on the Regional and Provincial levels; however emphasis from the coaches will be on skill acquisition and solid fitness as much as meet performance. Olympic Way (LTAD - Fundamentals, Learning to Train) This is the first level of competitive swimming inside the program and a great place for our young 10 & Under swimmers to learn how to swim all four strokes, and all the basics of competitive swimming. Swimmers will learn their skills in a fun team environment with very little emphasis placed on time. Junior Olympic Way and Swim School “1” & “2” (LTAD - Active Start, Fundamentals) Swimmers will be placed in small groups with others approximately their own age and ability and be prepared for moving into other levels of the club when they are ready. Junior Olympic Way runs in three separate sessions that start in September, January and March. The Swim School “2” program will be for swimmers that are either a bit too young or not quite physically ready for the JOW program. The Swim School “2” program targets 4-5-6 year-old swimmers and runs in three separate sessions that start in September, January and March. This group swims twice a week for 30 minutes. The Swim School “1” runs sessionally just like Junior Olympic Way and Swim School “2”. This program is designed for our youngest 3 - 5 year-old swimmers who love the water! This program is a twice-a-week 30 minute introduction to swimming that runs both at Canyon Meadows and Acadia Pools and runs in three separate sessions that start in September, January and April. Additional Programming - Senior “XT”, Triathletes & Masters (LTAD - Active for Life) The Senior XT program is new this year and will be for all former competitive swimmers or multi-sport swimmers looking for a place to train and stay fit. This group will also be able to accommodate swimmers new to the sport but starting late. This program will run out of Mount Royal University. Triathletes and Masters will work alongside the Senior Select program at Mount Royal. Canadian Swimming LTAD (Long Term Athlete Development) The Cascade swim club is the only club in Canada currently offering the full-spectrum of LTAD programs right from “Active Start” for 3-5 year olds all the way through “Active for Life” swimming for adults and seniors. The complete LTAD document is available on the swimming Canada website: https://www.swimming.ca/docs/LTAD/LTAD EN.pdf.
