Was told today that there is six weeks to Short course nationals!!! Thats 42 days of training and roughful 9000 chances to perfect those turns!!! Don't waste it!!!
Joe is right, swimmers should use every opportunity to get the turns right and you DO need to be extra careful, practice 9000 turns wrongly and it will take a huge effort to correct them in the future.
Well done to the Club Committee of last year. A special thanks to Kris (Club Secretary) and Teresa (Club Treasurer)and good luck to the new committee. From all the Coaches, Swimmers and Parents.
