The more things stay the same the more they change. Another week and another set of fresh swimmers ready for another great week of swim camp. Sunday we spent the evening working on Ready position and Streamlining. It was a very informative night. By the end of the session it was very apparent that improvement had been made.
It is so rewarding seeing the look on swimmers faces when they "get it", their smile is so big and genuine.
Monday started with 6:15 practice and was my first in 13 years. The group enjoyed the challenging 4,500 yard workout. I stressed how each set had a purpose and in the end it was awesome to watch them get through it.
We had a classroom session on Freestyle and then spent the day and evening working on breaking down Freestyle and everything they needed to do to swim "Smart". The last pool session was spent on Freestyle starts and turns.
After such a rewarding day it was fitting the we began Cal U Swim Camp Survivor. Returning and new campers had a blast.
It has been a lot of fun watching new friendships being made.
Good Night from Cal U...I have to be up again at 6:00 a.m.

A Great First Day!!!
Here we are for Week 1 of CAL U Swim Camp. A great group of swimmers and an excited staff of coaches came together for a very productive first day.
Streamline and Ready position were the focus of the pool session. I really try to give the swimmers a "True" and "Real" explanation as to what we need them to do and how we want to do things. That way they know exactly what we need them to do and how we want them to do it. The better the staff can explain things even if it is said a couple of different ways the essence is there.
There were a lot of smiles and a lot of fun in the pool tonight.
The camp came together for an interesting team building exercise to finish off the day.
The group was introduced to Massively Multiplayer thumb wrestling. A lot of fun for all.
Tomorrow Coach Nikki starts the day with Early Morning practice.
Freestyle will be our focus on Day 2.
Good Night from Cal U.
