Coaching Philosophy

• Great coaching happens in critical moments - count your moments, not your medals
• Create an environment where hard work is fun
• Create an environment where it’s OK to fail
• Work together with parents, teachers, support system to raise happy healthy young people who know how to self-regulate their emotions.
• Build a strong technical foundation for each swimmer so they can be successful in the next group
• Teach kids how to have a healthy relationship with exercise and competition
• Teach parents how to best support their child as a swim parent

Coach

1. Learn everyone’s name as quickly as possible (go home & study)
2. Every swimmer gets one on one interaction at every practice
3. Stay engaged - eyes on the pool for the entire practice
