Swim meet warmups: where personal space goes to die.
Twelve swimmers per lane. Feet getting tapped. People doing backstroke into your butterfly. Someone always sprinting like it’s finals. And let’s not forget the awkward ballet of trying to circle swim while pretending you’re not slightly annoyed.

It’s crowded. It’s chaotic. It’s kind of a mess.

But it’s also part of the sport.

Learning how to stay calm, focused, and flexible in the middle of all that splash is a skill—and every swimmer has their own way of handling it.

Some rely on luck. Others rely on focus, grit, and preparation. In the water, there’s no substitute for hard work. When you train with purpose and step up with confidence, the results take care of themselves. No luck needed—just dedication, determination, and a drive to be better.

Swimming is more than just times on a scoreboard—it’s an experience. When we bring energy to the sport, we keep young swimmers engaged and excited to race. A hype finals walkout like this isn’t just for show—it builds anticipation, fuels competition, and makes swimmers feel like the stars they are. If we want to grow the sport and keep kids invested, we have to make every meet feel special. Let’s give them a reason to love every moment.

Months of hard work and relentless effort have led us to Age Group Sectionals. These swimmers have pushed their limits, fine-tuned every detail, and shown up for each other. Now, it’s time to put it all together and race.

If you’re a breaststroker or flyer who thinks you can sneak by with a one-hand touch? Not on our watch! While Coach was working with one swimmer, his eyes still caught this breaststroke blunder at the wall. Call it coach radar, call it superpowers—either way, he saw it. Two hands next time, champ!

Chlorine: great for the pool, not so great for your skin and hair. From post-swim itch to that eau de chlorine scent, finding the right care products can be a struggle. But our swimmers have found a game-changer—and they’re practically fighting over it! @wetrihard keeps their skin and hair feeling fresh, and now you can try it too.

Great coaches and great teams inspire! We ‘borrowed’ this drill from @coach_jake_swim at @bolles_school_sharks and put our own spin on it for a warm-up. A few tweaks here and there, but the kickboard + fins combo had our swimmers thinking differently about how they move through the water. Big thanks for the inspiration!

For those wondering what we’re actually doing…

The drills are done as 75s with a kick board and fins.

The original drill was done as a broken 75. The first 25 underwater with 3 dolphin kicks and flutter kick the rest of the way. We modified it to dolphin kick the entire way. The 2nd 25 is what they call zombie kick on their back with fly kick while holding the board above their head. We modified it to backstroke kick. Both 25s done this way were really great at engaging the kids core.

Then we had the kids rest for 5 seconds and did a 25 backstroke kick with the kick board above your head.
