Being a ‘Swim Parent’ is quite the commitment. As your young swimmer ploughs up and down the pool, you are expected to get them where they need to be, provide encouragement and support, and keep their chins up when things aren’t going to plan. It can be quite daunting at times, but don’t worry, we are here to help.
Here at RDASC we have a community of brilliant swim parents who you can call on for advice or support. Of course, you can also speak to your child’s coach about anything that might be on your mind.
Swim England also have some excellent resources, which can be accessed on their website. Everything from swimmer health and mental wellbeing is covered, as well as nutrition and more general matters. These articles and videos are high quality and well worth a look. You can find the resources here
