Swim Meet

The 2 girls had their first taste of real competition during the recent Novice Swim Meet held by their swim school. Yan took part in the fun swim and treasure hunt events. Rui tried her "fins" at the 30M freestyle. Although they did not take away the top prizes at all categories (coming in 8th or 10th), we felt it was a wonderful experience as they walked away feeling more confident of themselves and both displayed true sportsmanship. We stressed to them that putting in their best effort was more important than winning the first prize. It helped that they both got medals for their efforts!
