Parents
Parents are not to be on pool deck during training. Parents are encouraged to watch sessions from the seating galleries in the Competition and Diving pools. Training pool sessions should be observed from the café or from the leisure side of the pool where possible. Parents are not to become involved in training sessions. Parents that wish to talk to the coaches must make an appointment outside training times.
Parental involvement in the sessions interferes with the disciplinary process of the session. It is distracting to the coaches and swimmers. The swimmers need to concentrate on instructions from the coach not the parents. Parental involvement undermines the confidence of the coach, and the swimmer’s confidence in the coach. Swimmers should be responsible for their own equipment. Please respect this request; its aim is to ensure an optimum learning and training environment. Parents who have concerns regarding their children’s training sessions should make an appointment at the swim school office. | |
