The ABC of good Training Standards for all Squads
 
ALWAYS try to arrive early about 10 minutes before the session starts, to mobilise and do your blood flow exercises.

BRING all equipment necessary for your SQUAD, and be prepared to use it when asked. ALWAYS bring a drink with you (water or diluted squash not fizzy).  NO DRINK NO SWIM.

COME prepared to swim the WHOLE session.  Whilst you are swimming the session perform correct strokes and turns throughout the session.  NO walking, stopping or bobbing up and down during the session especially the warm up and warm down.  If you need to stop – stop in front of the coach.  PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT PERFORMANCE.

DON’T talk when the coach is giving instructions.  Listen carefully to the coach they have important information that they are trying to pass on to you to help you swim faster.

ENJOY your swimming.  Remember it is a LONG JOURNEY.
