Aquae Sulis Hub Network Coaches Event - 16th February 2012
25 coaches from across Wilts and BANES attended the inaugural coach's learning session organised by Aquae Sulis at the Bath Sports Village on 16th Feb.
Graeme Entwhistle, who coached UK swimmers at the Bejing Olympic games and is currently part of the ASA Intensive Training Centre based in Bath, presented his ideas on improving swimmers butterfly stroke and then led a coaching session with 8 Corsham swimmers.
Chippenham coaches Stephen Miller and Tony Wright attended the 2hr learning event and hope to bring some of the things they learned into regular Chippenham training sessions. This was the first such learning event organised by Aquae Sulis and it is planned that further events cover other strokes and other training that can aid the development of our swimmers. As Graeme is poolside at Bath with the ITC on a daily basis, he offered the opportunity for coaches to come and watch how he trains his elite athletes.
Newsflash
We need more licensed officials to run events and to complete behind the scenes roles. Why not start to train as an official? Its not as daunting as you think. Most of the training is done on pool side at a pace that suites you. Join a Judge 1 course to see what it is all about. Questions?

If you are a parent of a CASC swimmer and have an hour or two to spare each week please contact a member of the committee either on poolside or via the 'contact us' link above as we are always looking for help from committed parents. Support is welcome both on poolside and behind the scenes with club administration / management functions.
