Book excerpt: A very warm welcome to 'Butterfly Competitive Swimming Drills'.About this publicationThis publication provides coaches, teachers and swimmers with a series of tried and tested competitive butterfly drills. These can be easily incorporated and adapted into your training or teaching programmes, whether you coach or teach, rookies or national swimmers.Delivering fresh stimuli to your training programmeCompetitive swimming can be a gruelling sport, requiring swimmers to undertake many hours of repetitive training each week, in pursuit of excellence. Developing a training or teaching programme that delivers the technical and physical demands of our sport, while at the same time adding variety to your sessions can be an ongoing process. This can be both difficult and time-consuming to achieve. Swimming programmes without fresh stimuli are in real danger of demotivating both swimmers, coaches and teachers alike. Over the past twenty-five plus years as a head coach, coach and teacher, I have managed to collate a portfolio of competitive butterfly drills. I have used these to develop many young competitive butterfly swimmers to county, regional/state and national levels, the best of which are published here.Focusing on the stroke's key technical techniques This publication focuses on the stroke's key technical techniques. Each has its dedicated chapter, breaking down the stroke into its key constituent parts, to help both the coach, teacher and the swimmer develop and maintain a great butterfly stroke.
