NOODLE TURN DRILL

We did this drill recently and it was fun and effective.  Try it at your neighborhood pool with friends and teammates.

• Stay low to the water
• Keep head in line
• Eyes look up
• Resist circle swimming

A few things may go wrong, but that is part of the fun.  Work together and you'll figure it out quickly. Crashing into the noodle is part of the fun!

• Keep the noodle in the center of the lane
• Place the noodle fairly close to the wall

Advanced:

• Watch for the T
• Time your turn without moving your head to look at the wall. 
• Aim to finish on the long stroke.
• If you are an older swimmer, help little kids with this drill.  They will love it!

HAPPY SUMMERTIME!

Drill idea from Jan Charles Mittemeyer via swim coaches exchange group.  THANKS!
