Coaching In A Changing Environment (Part 2)<\/span><\/h1>\n

By Michael J. Stott<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Last month (November 2021<\/a><\/span>), in Part 1, Swimming World explored how COVID-19 altered swim training as we have known it. This month, we look at some issues and opportunities facing club swimming as it strives to be the sport of choice for a younger generation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

More than 200 years ago, English romantic poet William Wordsworth noted, \u201cThe world is with us too late and soon.\u201d Regrettably, for the last two years, so has COVID-19. And as swim teams resume operations, they are re-examining how past practices and new thinking can augur future success.<\/p>\n

Jack Roach, former national junior team director for USA Swimming, is now the director of coach and athlete development for TIDE Swimming (Virginia Beach, Va.). He reports that during the pandemic, TIDE coaches rediscovered the importance of engaging their athletes emotionally and psychologically.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we were doing before, we did better. I think other teams did that as well. Conversely, those who were not doing well previously, continued to do worse,\u201d he says. \u201cOur parents rallied around one another and the team. Without committed parents, we would not have survived.\u201d<\/p>\n

TIDE board leadership aggressively focused on pre-pandemic plusses and pursued an assortment of ways to support the coaching and admin staff on dryside issues that the board could uniquely lead. As examples, Katy Arris Wilson, board president and former USA national team member (1987-92), says that TIDE:
\n\u2022 \u201cUsed our board\u2019s skill set to lead the efforts to apply for a local PPP loan;
\n\u2022 \u201cAnalyzed our financial statements. Even before knowing if we qualified for the PPP loan, we made a commitment not to lay off or furlough any staff;
\n\u2022 \u201cMade adjustments to the dues structure based on time out of water.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also let our coaches guide our athletes and membership. Jack Roach and head coach Richard Hunter led the staff and found the best ways to connect with athletes when forced out of the water by the governor. They communicated well with athletes, and the board sent out communication to parents about our efforts to resume in-water practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

Says Wilson, \u201cThe genuine care and connection that our coaches committed to our athletes did not go unnoticed by team parents who often, unsolicited, stepped up. For instance, one single parent, a fireman, volunteered to livestream all of our meets on YouTube. He presented the idea to the board, and we funded all the investment (wiring for Wi-Fi, cameras, switchers, speakers, etc.). He then cobbled together all the manpower and coordinated with meet hosting volunteers so the meets could be watched via YouTube.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also communicated more proactively with our pool partner, the YMCA of South Hampton Roads, to get our athletes back in the water as soon as we were legally allowed, which was sooner than most clubs across the country. Frequent coach communication with Y staff was critical here,\u201d she says.
\nWith a semblance of normalcy returning to TIDE activities, Wilson cites three areas of continued board diligence:
\n\u2022\u00a0 Dryside support of coaches\u2014i.e., financial oversight, compensation and benefits\u2014so coaches and staff feel appreciated and valued;
\n\u2022 Securing pool space, near term, medium term and long term;
\n\u2022 Giving coaches latitude to run the program and instill the culture they defined in our work with a consultant in August 2019.<\/p>\n

GOING FORWARD<\/strong><\/span>
\nJoel Shinofield\u2019s r\u00e9sum\u00e9 includes service as a club coach, assistant at the University of Minnesota, head coach at Washington & Lee, executive director of the CSCAA and now managing director of sport development at USA Swimming.<\/p>\n

\u201cNever has it been more important for a team to be strengthening ties with its community and families,\u201d he says. \u201cIn the boom times, we may take some of those things for granted\u2014i.e., a waiting list. But the reality is if you have a deep connection to families and athletes about the value of your program and the reasons for what you are doing, you are going to retain people at a high level and develop a good reputation in your community.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the thing coaches in this country have done well, but it has to be reinforced in a time like now\u2014adding value to the people you work with,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

042 <\/span> SWIMMING TECHNIQUE CONCEPTS: MAXIMIZING SWIMMING VELOCITY (Part 6)\u2014THE PUSH PHASE<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Rod Havriluk<\/strong>
\nIn freestyle and butterfly, swimmers typically decrease the push phase time to increase stroke rate and swimming velocity. In doing so, the premature upward motion of the elbows pulls the hands upward and compromises propulsion. Most swimmers can gain additional propulsion on the push phase by pushing the hand backward instead of pulling the hand upward.<\/p>\n
