Reviews
“This is the parent education piece that we all wish we’d had for years!”
“Every parent wants to support their child, but the ‘how’ very rarely comes from a Hall of Fame coach and mentor in the sport. Applying the ideas and anecdotes in this book has helped swimming bring my daughter and I closer.”
“An absolute joy to read…So critical to help educate new swim parents but will also be very informative for the veteran parents on your club.”
“I can’t imagine a better resource to help us focus on the ‘right things’ as we support the development of a young mind and body.”
“I highly recommend How to Be a Great Swim Parent to anyone seeking guidance and inspiration to be the best swim parent possible.”
