Sharks 1/2/2020 Practice Plan

Sharks 2Practices

Warmup

100 IM Kick100 BK2 x 25 Position 11

4 x 25 on 1:00 FREE with fly kick streamlines.

Split up into two groups:

Group 1:

Group 2:

Get back together into one group

Fail Box Game

Everyone in the lane does #1. In this case, Streamline underwater.

Round 1 is a practice round, round 2 is the final test round.

Coaches give thumbs up for success (they did the skill correct) or a thumbs down, or fail, if the swimmer does ANYTHING incorrect.

If anyone fails their attempt the lane does the Fail Box activity 1.

If everyone succeeds, then lane does the Success Box 1.

Go down the line not repeating fails or success box items.

Builds upon a few expected systems in place:

  1. SL + [something], swimmers should understand this concept and be familiar with short distance training and feedback.
  2. Knowledge and awareness of what those [something] activities are. You have to teach them before you can play this game.
  3. Be able to read the board and know what the shorthand means.
