Masters team coaching pay

How many o you know what is paid to your coach/coaches for the season ? Do you pay into a required fund for the team or a monthly pay or how does the team do it? how much do you think the coach should make for the time & effort of practices -meets - meetings required to run the team?

    Anyway, I'm getting too much into potential answers, what do YOU see as the answers? I gave up long ago Lindsay. For several entertaining reasons which I'll be glad to share with you when we meet. For now, let us just say that I try not to issue general judgment based on how I would do things if I was the head coach. I am not a reference in other words. Generally speaking, members of ACC are satisfied by the coaching they receive. Or so I believe. And like I said, you already began improving the situation. I told Pablo that there was a clip for this National record he made over 100 fly. He wasn't even aware, now they both are (Him and the coach). That's a start. Maybe they'll checkin on mymsc more often, read a few articles, and thus get aware that there's a parade going on for them. If you want more insight, just ask Mark. I'm sure he could tell you much more about the situation that prevails with the coaching for this team. I remember one day that he and the coach almost came to a fight on some stupid things. And the problem wasn't not on Mark's side. - - - Your video setup question, that I can answer by telling you how I used to handle it. Very simple. I know it's hard to believe but you can trust my words. I used to carry this material with me on every session, except maybe for these sessions where the material wasn't available. So there were no official video recording sessions. If you'd swim with me, and I see something I dislike in your stroke, I would film you while you're not even aware, then take you out of the pool and give my feed back. Takes a little longer, but I found out over the years that it was the most efficient way of getting the message through once and for all. In the end, it means that sometimes, 1 or 2 swimmers would get filmed. Those with whom I would need to communicate. Sometimes none. Sometimes 4, it depends on the set (got to be a nice long simple steady set) and on what I would see that day. I would log in a notebook (paper notebook that is) every little feed back so that I remain consistent. Very simple, not time consuming, but required that I do the extra effort of reserving the material, take it in the basement, roll it on the deck, connect it etc etc...
