Barrington's Fabian Captures Freestyle Record!

7/3/2009 10:40AM

10-year old Brandon Fabian of the Barrington Blue Fins set a new CSL record today in the Boys 9-10 50Y Freestyle. The White Division speedster rocketed to a time of 28.72, over 1/2 second faster than the previous mark of 29.24 which was set in 1978 by L. MacDonald of Fort Belvoir -- twenty-one years before Brandon was born.

Way to go, Brandon, and congratulations on your achievement!

Season Heats Up With Close Meets in Week 2

6/28/2009 02:57AM

The Colonial League's Blue Division -- our most competitive division last summer -- continued its trend of close meets today. When you add to that several other tight meets in the other divisions, it made for an interesting day across the league.

Sequoia Farms edged Countryside in a meet that came down to the final three relays. Two more meets were up in the air going into the final two relays with Armfield Farm defeating Chase Club and Chantilly Highlands overcoming Barrington. And in two barnburners that were decided by the final relay, the Burke Centre Penguins edged Franklin Farm and Chantilly National nipped Fort Myer.

Week 3 Hy-Tek Meet Files Posted

6/28/2009 12:34PM

Meet files for the third week's Dual meets are now available in the Document Center in the Meet Files directory. To download, simply right-click on the desired file, then click Save Target As... (Internet Explorer) or Save Link As... (Firefox).

Computer volunteers from both teams will need the Events File, which should be imported into Team Manager. The home team should also download the Meet Database and use it to run the meet . If desired, either team can download and use the Meet Database to pre-print time cards on Friday evening.

See the A-Meet Procedures Help Sheet in Document Center > Hy-Tek > 2009 > Help Sheets for more information.

All meets are setup with a Start Date of July 4th, 2009. We suggest that you do not change this date, even if you have moved your meet to a different date. If one team changes the date and the other does not, then problems will arise.

All meets are set up as 6-lane Meter except for:

8-lane Meter:
Franklin Glen at South Riding

6-lane Yard:
Sugarland Run at Glen Cove
Hayden Village at Barrington

8-lane Yard:
Arlington Knights of Columbus at Chinquapin

If you detect a problem with your Meet Database or Events File, please contact Cory Young (cory_young@yahoo.com) and Bob Brofft (bbrofft@cox.net).

2009 Season Off To Wet Beginning

Penguin boys set new league mark!

6/23/2009 02:08AM

Colonial Swimming League swimmers and volunteers overcame the elements yesterday to get the 2009 season off to a successful start. All twelve meets were completed successfully despite what were very heavy rains at times.

In the closest meet of the day, the South Riding Stingrays came from behind in the relays at the Hayden Village Villains to win by the narrow margin of 224 to 219. And at Burke Centre in a meet that featured nine lead changes, the Broadlands Piranhas won the last three relays by a combined 0.66 seconds to overcome the Penguins, 230 to 214.

The Burke Centre Penguins 15-18 boys set a new league record today in their medley relay. The relay consisting of Joe Zanellato, Tyler Ogren, Cameron Patterson, and Ben Zajic blazed to a time of 1:54.91, bettering the previous mark of 1:55.13 which was set in 2006, also by the Penguins.

Interested swimmers and parents will of course want to navigate to the Latest Results and the popular League Leaders pages on this website.

2009 Officials Certification

5/24/2009 06:11AM

To keep their certifications current, CSL Officials must attend an officials clinic and pass appropriate tests at least once every two years. (Every year is recommended.)

New CSL officials, in addition to attending the clinic and passing the test, must also work three (3) apprentice sessions and submit Referee sign-off on cover sheet to CSL Certification Manager.

This year's officials tests have been combined into this single, fillable PDF form. You'll need to download it and complete the sections that apply to your certifications.

But before you do that, please download and read these detailed certification procedures.

For your handy reference, here is an up-to-date compilation (end-of-season 2008) of officials certification information.

And if you're looking for officials clinics to attend, take a look at this complete 2009 training schedule.

2009 Meet Schedule Now Available
