Summer swimming is kicking into high gear. We are starting practice at the LC outdoor pool which is always a lot of fun.
Coaching tip:
To keep swimmers year round you have to keep them in the summer. There is a lot of competition from vacations and laziness that can pull a kid away from the team. Try to shake it up a bit and add a new twist that is fun to keep interest up. In our case, we are practicing at a different location and incorporate diving breaks into the practice, it works for us!

Bully for you. Your seventeen year old swimmers beat the other local team in the 400m novice swim. The oldest kid in this event from the other local team was 10.The other local team had 10 yos swimming in 800m and 4 swimmers in the 2K. Toot your horn but 4th place in high school is last place and 8th place in the tri-8 is last out of 8.
Austin is 11, Kyle is 11 as is Noah. What do you mean by saying my 17 yo swimmers? But you know what they say, only successful enterprises rise to the level of gaining critics :)
