Week 15 Updates & Reminders

Good day parents! We hope your week has gone well and this holiday season has been minimally stressful. I, for one, am looking forward to a break from work to rest, relax, and spend time with the family. 

Do you know what, though? One of my bosses sent all of us a bunch of links to reading materials to to review during our time off. The audacity....

Anyways, here's some helpful links we encourage you to review with your swimmers while you're enjoying the holidays break so they can become better swimmers:

  • Breaststroke Technique - They don't really discuss the biggest DQ reason though: two hand touch so be sure to go over that with them! Perhaps let your kids use your rolling office chair from some drills...look at this form (solid);
  • Butterfly Technique - same as above (two hand touch not discussed) ... maybe you should run some two hand touch drills at the house. Two hand touch the box of cereal. Two hand touch the tablet. Double high fives to grandma when she visits, every three minutes for four hours (make sure both hands stay at the same level!). Nana will love it. 
  • Backstroke Technique - snow angels and backstroke are not the same, just FYI

Reminders

  • This week is the last week of practice before our winter break! Get some practice time in before you can't the rest of the year!
  • Winter Break is from 12/25 - 1/1 (no practices). We will return to practice on Tuesday, 1/2/2024 (Southside Pool).

Have a great rest of your weekend, Dolphins!
