[quote=Anonymous]I don't know about private lessons. However, our SSL summer league coaches have varied in quality. Many of the advanced teen coaches have only ever been told what to do so they have very little theory. Look ma! I put my hands here and go fast. Others seem to be pretty good (like high school valedictorians that can swim) especially for the advanced swimmers. There is something to be said for a coach having coached younger kids over and over, however it's been my experience that they tend use some kids as "guinea pigs" and others get much better lessons. EG Oh wow this really worked for XY or Z why don't you try it. When XY or Z were pretty much just figuring it out for themselves, eg no benefit to coaching what-so-ever. Though, if you are going to try to make a club you obviously have to pay the gate keeper.[/quote]
