Coaches:
On what information do you set your programs for the year/2 yrs/3 yrs/4 yrs?
Where do you get the info for this?
Is it the information from Bill and the ASA?
If not where from?
Do you let your swimmers see your program that you have built for the year?
At what age do you discuss it with them?
Do you discuss it with the parents too?
Do all your swimmers know their goals and how do they fit in with your program?

Do you let your swimmers see the session before they swim?
Do some of them want to know or do they prefer not to know!!?
Do your swimmers keep a log?
Do they mind you reading it if you do?
At what age do you encourage log books?

Just a few discussion points to get us going!!! (or maybe I'm just nosey!!!)
