[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] were neglected on technique corrections by the swim coaches for the rest of the summer.[/quote] FWIW, I think kids with less swimming experience may less equipped to understand and apply what the coaches are saying. So if a coach says to a whole lane of kids, "let's do the superman drill," some kids will know exactly what that means, while others are going to be bumbling around, trying to figure it out. I think that great summer swim coaches are able to find the kids who need extra help and give it to them, but it may not always happen.[/quote] I agree with this, but there are too many kids on a large swim team for coaches to spend consistent one on one time with each. A kid doesn’t go from not knowing how to do a stroke to perfect form over a summer, even if coaches aren’t neglecting them. Having good individual stroke instruction gives a swimmer the raw materials to make the most of summer swim.[/quote]
