Team Training Concepts
Team Training Concepts
The purpose of the team concepts is to create an environment that is conducive for training and learning. Hopefully, this environment will maximize the personal safety of each swimmer, give direction and guidance during swim practice and at swim meets. Our team will rely on the following concepts of training in daily practice:
- Come to practice on time.
- Come to practice prepared with equipment and in working order.
- Listen, look and keep your head above the water while the coach is giving instructions.
- Follow coach instruction and direction when first given.
- Push from the wall in a tight streamline position
- Do not stop during warm-up.
- Do all turns and finishes legally and fast.
- Start repeats exactly on time and quickly.
- Get your times on every repeat and set goals for each repeat.
- Swim correctly all the time.
- Focus on technique while swimming.
- Always finish sets fast.
- Perform each drill correctly. No talking during instructions, stroke drills and training sets.
- Keep water bottle at the end of your lane.
