Hosting my first masters practices this week.... variety of skill levels. Hour long practices. Any tips for good first week practices?? (new to coaching masters, but have been swimming/coaching for 35 years)....
any and all advice welcomed!
Mahalo!
I'd try to establish right away that it's a two-way street between you and the swimmers. It's not going to just be you barking orders and them nodding and pushing off. Masters swimmers are in the pool for many different reasons and they need to articulate those reasons to you in order for you to coach them as effectively as possible. Good luck!
