Ensure your swimmers are properly progressing through their season , while hitting all the appropriate technique components of their four strokes and kicking styles.
At SLAF, we offer four different Swim & Kicking Technique Plans for Coaches. We have a 4-Month Technique & 4-Month Kicking Season Plan, along with an 8-Month Technique & 8-Month Kicking Season Plan. Our goal is to help you build the fastest and most well-round athletes!
When I was a younger coach, I would dream of having a season plan template. I kept reading all the books on swim coaching and attending different clinics and conferences, that spoke of a coach’s season plan as their secret sauce to success. Overwhelmed with learning, how much to train this or that, plus – hitting all the drills needed to properly progress our swimmers – gave me a headache just thinking about it. We hope to minimize or avoid you having any headaches with our Swim Technique Season Plans.
We all know perfecting swimming technique in each of the four strokes is extremely important in order to grow and become a better athlete. Understanding and learning the basics will ensure that your athletes also avoid any additionally injuries they may face during their time in the sport. As a coach, your goal is to make sure your swimmers have a foundational understanding and feel for the ideal swim technique. We’ve worked hard to plan and outline drills and focus points to help you, help your athletes.
On top of that, more and more coaches are recognizing the importance of kicking with swimmers. We just recently added a 4 and 8 Month Kicking Season Plan(s) to our library. This will not only help you make sure you’re training your swimmers through all the different styles of kick, but better build their engines out too!
Swim Like A Fish Season Plans are geared towards the Summer and the Fall/Winter Seasons, but this doesn’t mean you have a different season schedule – these plans wouldn’t work for you! We’ve had plenty of coaches purchase these plans and adapt them to their season schedule. For example, we have had a lot of High School Swim Coaches purchase our 4-Month Technique Season Plan and use that during the Winter Months. If you’re not sure if these plans would work for you or how to adapt them to your schedule, feel free to send us an email and we’d be happy to answer any questions!
These plans were built for coaches of all levels – doesn’t matter if you’re a veteran coach looking to spruce up your season planning this year or a newbie coach, these Season Plans will help you get your team faster. We want to help you focus on being on deck and teaching what is important for each swimmer to learn to have a long and healthy swimming career – while we take some of the weight off your back!
