Go Ayden, Go!

Ayden swam in his first ever swim meet after a couple of weeks of practice for the Amberly (neighborhood) swim team! The meet was on Wed, Aug. 11th. This is the first year for the Amberly swim team and so they chose two teams within their own group, the Sea Devils (red swim caps) and the Great White Sharks (blue swim caps). The age groups are 7 and under, 8-9's and 10 and up. Ayden is 5 and a half this Summer, so he does have to work extra hard to compete against 7 year olds, but at least he is getting exposure to the sport and how things work and next Summer, he will be on top of his game for the youngest age group! :) Next year, the club will also sign up to compete in the Triangle Swim League, which will allow our team to compete with neighboring swim teams. Can you tell that Ayden's mom is probably a little more into this than even Ayden? Who can blame a girl for trying to relive her childhood memories by watching her athletic son do what she used to? :)
