Synopsis

This title presents a new set of commandments for swim coaches. In the ten years since the original volume of the Swim Coaches Bible was published swimming records have been smashed and coaching techniques have been constantly evolving, so rather than update the old version, it was decided to replace it with a completely new one. The result is The Swim Coaching Bible, Volume II , a one-source reference book, with each contributing author developing their chapters according to their own successful coaching experiences. At least 15 of these authors have coached either world record holders or Olympic Champions and often both. Their biographies are success stories of great achievements and the new chapter topics cover the essence of what it takes to be a successful coach. The second volume of The Swim Coaching Bible is destined to become the most valuable reference book in every swimming coach library.
