Thoughts on Age Group Swimming and the coaching of younger athletes. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. Want a quick and easy game to play at swim practice to spice things up a little bit? Play "The Dice Game"! The white one was for the distance. If you rolled a "1", then you swam one lap. If you rolled a "6", then you swam six laps. The green one was for the stroke. 1 for Fly, 2 for Back, 3 for Breast, 4 for Free, 5 for Choice, 6 for Kick. For older swimmers the distances can be 25, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200? Some ...

http://gettingevenfaster.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Thoughts on Age Group Swimming and the coaching of younger athletes. Friday, January 20, 2012. Consistent Work Consistent Focus. Many of our younger (and not so experienced) T2 swimmers are "getting it" and "getting it" in a big way. Cheering and supporting your teammates. Learning that wearing sweatshirts, parkas, pants, socks, shoes (not flip flops! Some swimmers tried to tell me this weekend that Balloons make you swim fast. Oh, that couldn't be further from the truth! What can you work more at? One o...

Single foot hops, double foot hops, big jumps, twisting jumps, fast jumps, jumping jacks, squat jumps! Everyone seemed to get sweaty after this one! This is easy with sidewalk chalk at an outdoor pool. You could also do this inside on a gym floor with some painters tape? Friday, April 20, 2012. Swimming In A Tech World.

Thoughts on Age Group Swimming and the coaching of younger athletes. Thursday, November 8, 2012. The set that they were doing while I noticed their behavior. Most importantly, what the behavior was and why it was awesome. Sometimes I give a suggestion of something that they may want to do in practices (Kick a 50 Breaststroke in 45 seconds?

Thoughts on Age Group Swimming and the coaching of younger athletes. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Speaking To Young Athletes. When coaching/teaching/encouraging/supporting/laughing with young athletes there are a few different ways to make it all happen. What is the best style? That is certainly debatable.

Maybe they just need a quic...

Thoughts on Age Group Swimming and the coaching of younger athletes. Friday, September 28, 2012. We Love To Kick. At T2 we LOVE kicking, especially on the age group end. We work on becoming better kickers each day. First on a kickboard, then underwater. Some teams use cones, but the hockey pucks are smaller and easier to store. They only cost about a $2 each and will last forever. They work for us! Keeping a good attitude and continuing to move the practice forward helps set the tone of the practice....
