2021 NCS Select Camp

April 30, 2021 by Bill Martin

The 2021 NCS Select Camp was held at the Greensboro Aquatic Center and Greensboro Coliseum on Sunday, April 25. It was a full day of activities for campers ages 9-14. In addition to in-water training, campers had underwater videos made, using special underwater cameras, that they and their coaches can use to evaluate technique. Campers also had a chance to hear their guest speaker, former NBA player Wayne Robinson, discuss some of the positive habits, values, and attributes that help athletes maximize performance…and eliminating the negative or “junk in the trunk” as he calls it.

Congratulations to the following athletes who attended this year’s Select Camp.

2021 NCS IMX Camp

January 25, 2021 by Bill Martin

Thank you to all the athletes who participated in the 2021 NCS IMX Camp.  We are thankful we had a successful Camp. All of our coaches thoroughly enjoyed working with the athletes, and look forward to seeing you on deck in the future.

Hope you enjoy this highlight video from our successful 2021 NCS IMX Camp held at the Greensboro Aquatic Center, Saturday January 23, 2021. 

A special “Thank You” to our surprise guest clinician, Coleman Stewart. Stewart is a 22-time All-American,  former NC State swimmer, current Pro swimmer at Wolfpack Elite, also swims for the ISL Cali Condors. In his senior year at NCSU, Coleman posted a nation-leading time of 44.04 in the 100 yd back. He also swept the backstroke titles at the ACC Championships for the third year in-a-row.  Coleman’s specialty events include 100 back, 100 fly, and dabbles in some sprint free when needed.  He is known for his underwater kicks, backstroke starts, and racing starts from the blocks. Coleman arrived in the afternoon to work with the 12 & 13 year olds on technique tips and tricks for starts, underwater work, and turns. The athletes and coaches enjoyed learning and working alongside Coleman. We appreciate his surprise appearance and willingness to help our NCS athletes be the best they can be while learning from the best at Camp.

NCS IMX Camp: Final Update

January 18, 2018 by Bill Martin

Due to the recent snowy weather experienced throughout the state, I did want to be sure to let everyone know that the camp will proceed as scheduled.  As announced in the email sent last week, we are asking swimmers to arrive and check-in between 8-8:30am at the Greensboro Aquatic Center this Saturday, January 20th.  If you have been affected by the weather and need more time for arrival, please feel free to exercise caution and arrive when you can.  We will have people to assist those who need to check-in late.

If any swimmer is being picked up by someone other than his/her parent, please send a note telling us to whom you wish us to release your child on Sunday at the conclusion of the camp.  Checkout is still planned for 12:20pm on Sunday.

For any communication throughout the camp, here are some contacts that you may use for correspondence:

Jonathan Watson – 919-395-9586 – voice or text ; 01silversurfer@bellsouth.net
Amy Faulk – coachamyfaulk@gmail.com
Greensboro Aquatic Center – 336-315-8498
Jay Dodson, Camp Director – 336-337-0169

Room and roommate selection has already been concluded with an effort to have swimmers lodge with swimmers from around the state.  We hope this encourages getting to know one another and mirrors the procedures used by our Zone Team when travelling.  Please reinforce to your child the need to be polite and considerate of others at all times throughout the conduct of the camp.

Lastly, our Guest Head Coach Jim Richardson has requested that all swimmers who have a snorkel bring the snorkel to the camp with them this weekend.

Thank you for agreeing to attend this camp.  I look forward to hearing any and all feedback (positive or constructive) after the camp concludes.  If there are any questions that anyone has, please do not hesitate to email.

Jonathan Watson, NCS Camp Coordinator
