Swim England East Region

Following the fascinating discussions with our three practitioners (see episode 10, 11 and 12) from nutrition, psychology and strength and conditioning, today's discussion is a chance for a Regional Development Programme athletes to ask anything swimming related to the Regional Talent Officer and Regional Head Coach. 

Our final Q&A in this three-part series and we are talking all things nutrition with Jasmine Campbell. 

Following on from our digital development camp programmes this year, we have three great Q&A's to share with you. This is the second of three shows, all of which you can find on our podcast landing page. 

Today we are talking psychology and we're in discussion with Helen Davis of Think. Believe. Perform. 

Following the success of a digital camp delivery model this year, we offered an open question and answer session for every single 2008-born swimmer and their parents in the East Region. Today's discussion is with Fiona from Performance Herts and the questions are live from budding swimmers around our six counties. 

What is it like being a swimming parent? What is it like juggling siblings, a job and the huge commitment swimming entails? In this discussion we interview Caroline Peaty, mother of the swimming legend Mr Adam Peaty. She shares some fascinating insights into her journey and offers some wonderful tips for parents who are navigating their own routes through the swimming world.   Make sure you subscribe to our podcast to keep up to date with all our new resources and they go live.

As part of our Introduction to series for coaches, Ben Negus from City of Peterborough shares some time with us to reflect on coaching swimmers on Butterfly.
