Creative Coaching
The American Swim Coaches Association make an award at their World Clinic each year named after the greatest innovator of our sport, the 'Counsilman Creative Coaching Award'. Examples from last year can be found here.
You have 24 hours to swim as far as you can team. Mark swam 2hours on, 1 hour off until at 3.00am the next morning the doctor was called to the comatosed swimmer and declared he needs fluids badly,dispite an adjitated mum proceeded to continue and at 12.00noon the next day had covered a staggering 53k,maybe that deserves an award, I think so.
This site was originally started to encourage a distance event and training focus for New Zealand swimming coaches. It has since transmogrified into a site dealing with all aspects of swimming; good for it!
Clive Rushton is the Head Coach at Singapore Sports School and formally worked in New Zealand, Great Britain, Greece (a.k.a. Heaven), Canada, England, Scotland and Wales! Check out www.swimformation.com (... all you do is add water!)
Should Fina ban the new generation of suits and rescind all world records set since February 2008?
