This Coach Recommends It! Dec 08, 2002
By Laura Lewandowski This is my first year as being head coach of the girl's swim team where I work and one of my co-workers bought this book for me and I loved it! Whether you're beginning your swim/diving coaching career, or you're an Olympic coach, this book comes it great handy! I learned a lot from this book, and at every meet, it's under my arm or right next to my split or heat sheets! I'd recommend it to any one who wants to coach, is a coach, or wants that extra edge!

Useful Jun 05, 2003
By James Madison
"waterduke22"
I have coached for seven years and I found this book to be a good reminder of what I want to do, and a good start to improving on my faults. This book gives some good work out ideas, and planning, but the strongest section is how each coach should relate themselves to the kids. I found that alot of the ideas that are in the book can directly relate to so many of my kids. A must for new coaches, and a useful tool for us old heads who think we know everything.

Good Book Feb 05, 2003
By Sirri Al-Ghul A very good book, you can learn from the experiences of the top coaches in the world from this book! Each chapter is written by a world class swimming coach, this however, in my opinion, makes the book a little confusing for less experienced coaches, because although all coaches apply the same principles of training, each one presents them in a different way.

Full of knowledge coming from the experts May 30, 2007
By Nik of KL
"nikofkl"
I'm halfway through the book and just about to start coaching. Although it is meant for more experienced coach up to the Olympic level, I find it useful. Lots of knowledge from levels of swimmers and their expectations, responsibilities of coaches in terms of psychology and facility management, and even technic explained in detail, coming from the experts. This book explained the differences between the 2 types of freestyle so clearly and I hope it will help me in sprint training.
