2 weeks ago we brought all swimmers and parents of the swimming club to Parets communicate in person than going to study in the UK here race known as Science of physical activity and sport end of January. Everything
lived that evening was very emotional and full of contradictory feelings . So I want
today published the letter read to all present that letter to remember my words when the time hit his memoirs.
Hi all,
Good afternoon,
Firstly thank you all for attending this call so unusual, it really is very important to me that you are all here.
The reason why we are all here because I have to tell you a story, a short story about a boy we all know.
born 22 years ago in Badalona in a family athlete, judoka father, marathoner and mother gymnast.
When the child was two years they decided to put her in a pool and it seems that quite liked it 20 years later do not know live if no chlorine smell daily.
In 1996, with 9 years, this boy stood in front of his parents and told them he wanted decision to join the swimming club parets where he had been doing some tests. During those
wonderful years full of learning and fun tube the pleasure of meeting that considers the best coach he has had throughout his career, Agus Olivera, and form part of a team pervaded by a large friendship among all swimmers.
Several seasons later landed at CNParets a coach with a philosophy very broke into pieces different than what had been achieved so far.
In this situation it was already a boy of 15 years, posed new challenges, new horizons and tested in many other sports: football , athletics, triathlon, cycling, etc. Getting achieve great personal challenges.
With 17 years returned home, his club life, the CNParets where after one more season as a swimmer board had then proposed him as assistant coach. He spent a season following the departure of the previous board and the coach, the new executive committee headed by Toni Garcia agreed to appoint as club coach. A dream come true.
The last 4 seasons have passed the learning a lot, as a person and coach, working hard and above all very well having the time to try again to have that great atmosphere within the team that already had as a swimmer.
That boy become a man now you're talking this afternoon with my heart in my hand as I have new challenges ahead and these involve change.
As always I have told all my swimmers and parents, "Studies come first." Referring to this sentence, I have a chance I can not refuse and I want to make it familiar.
the race went on to study sports science at a university in the UK and this inevitably separates me from you.
Like all actions in life, everything has both positive and negative. Unquestionably
I want us to stay with all the positive, that of a person who fights passionately for his dream, to someday be a great coach and train an Olympic team.
again I want my swimmers to learn this lesson and continue to fight with all their might for their dreams and goals.
Finally I want to thank my parents for making me the person that I am very proud of them. Thanks also to the board for all that time to trust in me and my opinion and say to all parents and especially to all my swimmers, from the smallest to largest, which inevitably will all be in my mind and my heart forever.
want you to know to be a coach but you have a friend forever.
