Showing up each day, many swimmers are greeted to a pool full of lane lines. We just wanted to show them the process if they've never seen it. While this is usually part of the coaches job, swimmers are encouraged to learn new skills and take part in this process. ;)

Makes them appreciate things more when they have to do the work, too! |

At my club, the swimmers are always the ones who put in the lane ropes. |

At our trialthon club almost all members would rather loose 10 minutes of swim time than put out the ropes :( |

why arent they just left in? |

Because, especially outside, the sun and chlorine will shorten their lifespan. Gotta get them out, cover them, and take care of them. VERY expensive. :) Beside, this pool is a "fun" pool when the lanes aren't in. Could you imagine how trashed they'd be with kids climbing all over them all day. |

hei Glenn, I'm sure this pool is a "real fun" pool when the lanes are in; depending on the workout, of course. lots of fun at least for the coach =) |

Absolutely Lucas. I've said, practice is ALWAYS fun... it's just "who's" having fun that's the question. :) |

coaches making up some sweat....always fun...hahahha |
We are a group of swimmers who swim really fast, and like to help others learn how to reach their competitive potential in the area of professional swimming.
