Congratulations!
Congratulations IMX Participants! The Long Course Season is the
hardest to complete because of the endurance and strength
necessary to swim the longer meter races. Hard, consistent
training during the summer is what makes these swimmers strong
enough to be IMX Challengers!
How to Participate
Coach Wenzel will be working with each swimmer in Development 1,
Competitive 1, Competitive 2 and the Senior Group to make sure
that those swimmers are entered in the IMX events throughout the
season. Age Group coaches will be working with each swimmer to
make sure that they move toward the goal of being able to swim
all of the IMX events for their age group with a legal stroke.
Swimmers only need to compete in the IMX combination of events
for their age group and they will be part of the program. As
ANSC swimmers complete all of the IMX events, they will receive
recognition on the website and an IMX swim cap, IMX t-shirt or
IMX cinch sack while supplies last.

USA Swimming is very pleased to announce an exciting new program
… the I.M. Xtreme Challenge. The IMX Challenge is a motivational
program whereby swimmers will be scored and ranked nationally on
their performance in a combination of five or six events. The
purpose of the program is to promote versatility in age group
swimming while advocating greater participation and development
across a range of events that are integral to long term success
in swimming.
