Summer Session: Note from Coach Mike
Hi Everyone,
Just a reminder that next Monday (June 20) is the start of the summer session (6 weeks). Although our numbers were small for the spring session, the swimmers that were there were moving in the right direction and showed a great deal of improvement. I'm hoping we can get more swimmers involved for the summer session so that we start next season with greater technical proficiency (and the ability to swim faster).
For those that are on the fence, or otherwise unsure, here is what we are offering: We review video of world class swimmers so the kids can understand how their strokes should look. We spend our water time drilling or attempting to swim to better technique. We cover all 4 strokes (and starts and turns) and at some point I film them (older swimmers get over and under, and younger just the over).
For what we are offering I think this is a pretty good deal, and I'm pleased to announce that it's going to get even better for the summer session because Victoria Weber is going to be joining me so we'll have both better coaching and better filming opportunities.
Also a reminder that practice times move back :30 minutes. Older swimmers are from 4-5, and younger from 5-6.
Any questions you can contact me at mschmidt@kvymca.org.
Mike
