Combined with interviews of experts in various field of study and even coaches from other sports, listeners get the latest information and new ways of thinking about swimming and sports.

Episode 13 – Jason Swaim

 

Today we interview Jason Swaim, Head Age Group Coach at Cavalier Aquatics in Charlottesville, VA – Silver USA Club team of 185 swimmers. Jason has coached swimmers at nearly every level, but his passion is working with the 11–14-year-old age groups. He really enjoys teaching swimmers about the sport and developing athletes to have championship mindsets not only in the water, but as young people and adults as well.

 

Additionally, Jason has been in governance with GA LSC and coached on several pool and open water zones teams as well as the zone select camp. In this episode, we will talk with Jason about his move from GA to VA, transitioning from a head coach/owner of a club to a head age group coach at a YMCA, coaching age group swimmers and anything else that happens to come up in the conversation. It’s going to be fun!
