RSVP FOR OUR ANNUAL GALA BY MAY 1!
Join us at our annual gala on Tuesday, May 21 at the American Museum of Natural History to celebrate Asphalt Green's efforts to transform lives and build community through sports, fitness, and play for all. This year, we're featuring special guest and honoree Tim Hinchey III, President & CEO of USA Swimming & the USA Swimming Foundation.
Asphalt Green's annual Big Swim event is coming up on Saturday, May 4, and we could use some help!
Big Swim offers swimmers of all ages and skill levels the opportunity to experience the thrill of competitive swimming. This year, all participants will race to be crowned the fastest swimmer in Manhattan!
We rely on volunteers to ensure Big Swim is a day to remember for all participants involved. In addition to giving back to the NYC Swim community, volunteering for Big Swim is a great way to connect with fellow Asphalt Green community members.
Please contact Coach Jim Wu at jwu@asphaltgreen.org to volunteer. Working hours start at 9am.
We're hosting a clinic on Saturday, May 11, at our Upper East Side campus to prepare for USMS Summer Nationals by talking about your starts, turns, and how prehab and rehab fit into your swimming.
WHEN// Saturday, May 11 from 6am-9am
WHERE// UES Pool (BPC practice will be canceled on that day)
OBJECTIVE// Coach Isaac will lead a prehab and rehab discussion centered around Physical Therapy. Coaches David, Brandon, Abby, Isaac, Nate, and Jim will work on various starts and turn progressions to optimize your efficiency through the water.
Please note, these intervals are for short course yards but feel free to adjust as necessary. Refer to the following USMS Pace Chartfor interval adjustments.
