    Coaches Competitive Coaching at 15

    Thank you for the advice, I greatly appreciate it. Although I do have a couple more questions if that's ok. 1. Why not coaching as a career? For a long time, I wanted that to be my whole job to progress and eventually become an elite or college coach. Since starting high school, I have found...

    Women My Meet Critique?

    So, worth it, helped my daughter know what she needed to work on to help her achieve Bar Regional Champ. Also they had our video back in about 2-3 days. Another good option is Braie Swaan.
