Finding Swimspiration in Summer League Coaching

By Alison Murtagh, Swimming World College Intern

With hot summer nights beginning to grow shorter, and July turning into August, many summer league swim teams are starting to partake in their championship meets. While I am no longer a summer league swimmer myself, these past few months marked my first as a coach, and what a whirlwind it was.

I remember 12 years ago, looking up wide-eyed at my summer league coaches as they stood on the side of the pool—always grinning and laughing with one another. I thought they were the coolest people out there, wearing their matching green polos and big sunglasses. Like my other young teammates, I told my parents that I wanted to be just like Coach when I grew up. To first-grade me, these lifeguards-turned-coaches were my heroes, and I aspired to be just like them. They always had a positive attitude, and made me look forward to coming to swim practice in a cold, unheated pool.
