The Race Club Introduces New Service for High School Swimmers
The Race club now offers to produce for you a DVD of your child, showing underwater, above water, starts, turns and transitions in all strokes desired. Further, we will help you select the schools and coaches to send the DVD to, along with an introduction. Far better than just a letter with your times on it, the DVD will provide useful information to the coach about your technical skills, attention to details and potential for improvement. The DVD may make the difference between your child or another receiving that athletic aid. The Race Club’s familiarity with swimming and college coaches and our respect among coaches will help us to find the right school and program for your child. Please visit their website or contact them for more information about producing a DVD to create a visual resume.
