The 2011 Canada Cup for diving comes to the Olympic Stadium!

First off, I hope everyone enjoyed spending time with their family and friends over the easter long weekend! Secondly, GOOD LUCK and CONGRATULATIONS to all participating athletes at the 2011 Canadian Open Championships that are being held in Calgary this week! It is hard to believe the year has passed by so quickly.

Our team enjoyed our 4 day easter holiday this past weekend but are now back at the pool starting to prepare for our competition that is just over a month away. We will be competing in the combo, tech team and free team events at the Italy open from June 8-12th.

This weekend Montreal is hosting the 2011 Canada Cup diving competition at the Olympic Stadium. The pool has been super busy with both our national teams training in one pool and divers from all over the world training in the other dive tank. It is a great experience to see another FINA aquatics competition and the other athletes training at our facility!!

Take care,
Rachel :)

April updates!

The end of my first university semester is just around the corner. Tomorrow I write my two final exams for my two university classes.. I have been doing nothing but studying for the past two weeks, it is crazy! As of Tuesday I will be free from school and able to relax and enjoy the nice weather!

On Thursday, April 21st after practice, I am taking the plane home for easter weekend. I return to Montreal on the following Monday, April 25th. I am VERY excited about visiting home because Christmas holidays was the last time I got to go home!

After the easter weekend, our team will be entering a tough 5 weeks of competition preperation. We are participating in the Italy Open which is taking place the second week of June. LETS GO CANADA!
