8-Month Kicking Season Plan

Overview

The 8 Month Kicking Winter/Fall Season Plan is designed for teams that have a competitive summer season from August to March. However, it can be adjusted to fit other timeframes as well. This plan provides a monthly calendar with daily recommendations for which energy system to focus on, the specific kicking technique to work on, and recommended drills.

By investing in this Season Plan, you’ll ensure a balanced progression of your swimmers through various kicking styles. This template serves as a foundation for your coaching creativity while providing a structured framework to guide you in effectively planning and periodizing a successful season for your athletes!

Course Duration

35 hours – but the reality is it’s just the duration to complete the program. It can take you just 20 seconds everyday to look at what we have prescribed and then you go to the drawing board. This plan is basically an outline of what to do and focus on, but without any written sets.

4 Month Season Plan Review:

I was a D1 swimmer like yourself and thought I knew everything about swimming. When I started coaching, I slowly realized how WRONG I was. I first started with high school, but most of my kids would quit the local club teams claiming that they liked being coached by me - a huge compliment. A local opportunity came up for club coaching and I took it.

Planning for a high school season was doable - I could figure out the three months and had a general understanding of what things they needed to do.

My first season of club coaching was okay - but I was SO overwhelmed with planning and wasn't quite convinced what I was giving them was what they needed. Sure, they were getting faster, but I knew I was missing something.

When I finally bit the bullet and purchased your plan at the end of the summer - my kids began to FLY. Their strokes got better, their times got faster, and these results were CRAZY!

I was still able to create my own workouts, but had a little bit of guidance on what they should be doing, and when in the season they should be doing it.

Here are four swimmers you can clearly see how the program benefitted them:

- Noah

- Tom

- Siobhan

- Kalani

Thank you! I now have the guidance to plan, but also cater to my teams needs.
