I’m going to try out for the swim team but I need swimming tips!?
My high school’s swim team isn’t very difficult to get into but I’m afraid that I can’t handle the rigorous workouts that I’ve heard about. Is there any swimming tips that anyone could offer?
If you know the basic strokes you should be fine. The high school coaches usually expect that some girls will be very new to the sport. They don’t just throw you in. They will hive you workouts that are on your level. Just remember to always try your best and don’t stop if you can help it.
A couple things to get before you first practice: a comfortable one piece swim suit. a good pair of goggles (i wear womens vanquisher), and a swim cap.
Swimming is a lot of fun. Don’t be nervous and don’t be afraid to ask questions.
well when you try out.. the coach will see that your "new-ish" so they wont give you a workout that is impossible to complete.
but during practice just listen to the little engine that could (i think i can i think i can)
and dont be afraid to ask questions! it will help alot. just go towards it being confident and ready to learn and work hard!
