[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was watching a lot of Fish swimmers at the January Open.   Their technique leaves a lot to desired.  [/quote]

clubs/practice groups can have different goal meets. Don't expect the swimmers you see at open meets to be a representative sample.[/quote]

Really?  If anything, it highlights the divide in a program.   They only focus on those with potential/fast times and who cares about everyone else...  Everyone should get the same instruction. [/quote]

Same instruction/ one size fits all doesn’t work for anyone.  seniors don’t practice with 8&unders for obvious reasons. Within any particular age group, there can be a wide disparity in skill, speed, endurance, etc. so it makes sense to divide to best suit the need of each subset.

Having lower skill swimmers focus on the detail that higher skill swimmers work on will frequently not make sense, because they need to continue to do more basic progressions.

So the coach at the “slow kid practice” will give full effort and attention to that group.  And the coach at the “fast kid practice” will give full effort and attention to that group.

TLDR: you don’t want the same instruction for all.  You want tailored instruction for your swimmer’s needs. [/quote]
