Any suggestions from anyone? Here's the deal:
We started 5 years ago with 27 gung ho masters swimmers--of very mixed ability. There are 2 of us left standing...
We work out with the kids who are trying to maintain fitness for highschool swim season or are trying to get into more challenging age group workouts. Again mixed ability.
$173 per trimester
4 workouts a week..ALL at 7:45 pm.
The triathlon group in town has 60 + members.
Triathletes get discouraged because of the stroke work
One of our coachs is great, the other is only fair.
6 coaches in 5 years.
What are we doing wrong? The program is on life support!
PS: Personally, I am never going to stop, ever.

The price really depends on the area. I am happy paying more then your club for 3 practices a week as we have a good coach. My team practices Mon/Wed/Fri from 9-10 pm in the winter and 7:30-8:30 pm in an outdoor pool in the summer. My coach does a lot of best stroke sets. This should keep triathletes happy as they can still do free.
