Meet Coach Claire and Coach Abigail...their mission was to train their fathers how to swim in preparation for the family/friend relay for the Stingrays summer swim team party.
After watching each Dad demonstrate their abilities in backstroke, breast stroke, and freestyle, the girls determined Jeff would swim backstroke and Andy would swim freestyle. They would take care of butterfly and breast stroke! Below the coaches are watching underwater while Jeff shows them his freestyle moves!
Here Coach Abigail is holding her Dad in place while Coach Claire watches his arms in the freestyle. Andy did almost drown, but only once!
Since the dads were not getting the technique, the coaches decided to demonstrate what they were wanting to see from their fathers!
More work on freestyle arms!
Next it was time to work on the core! These Dads were such great sports and probably still have sore backs and abs from laying on the pool deck in superman pose! The girls enjoyed the torture I think!
After a very tough workout, this relay team is confident they will come in first place at the party!
We ended the swim lesson with a little game of chicken in the pool! I was super impressed at all that the Dads put up with and how willing they were to learn new moves! Let the racing begin!
