Tuesday: Seasonal Training Plans - with Matt Kredich (University of Tennessee)

Since 2005-06, Matt Kredich has coached Tennessee to a combined 64 SEC titles, eight NCAA titles and a SEC Women's Swimming and Diving Team Championship in 2020, and also coached 4 Olympians at UT. Over the last six seasons, Tennessee's women have never finished worse than fourth in the SEC, and the men have finished sixth or better every year during that span—including third place in 2019. Coach Kredich walks us through his seasonal training plans and shows us how he builds out the season from macro to micro focus points, and how to adjust along the way.

Wednesday: Diversity and Inclusion - How We Plan to Increase Our Value at Our School Outside of the Pool

We continue to explore Diversity & Inclusion and its importance in all our pools. Seth Weidmann (Carthage) again hosts our event, and focuses on why it’s important to make your pool and team a focal point not only within your athletic department, but on your campus and surrounding community. Learn the importance of making your facility a beacon for at-risk and under served members as well as acknowledging the impact of rising your team status at your school. When decisions about cutting programs occur, it may be the community allies you make today who will fight for your program tomorrow.

Thursday: How Rivalries Shape & Inspire - A Talk With Army & Navy

One of the nation’s oldest football rivalries, the annual game between the United States Naval Academy and United States Military Academy began in 1890. The rivalry between Annapolis and West Point, while friendly, is intense. The phrases "Beat Navy!" and "Beat Army!" are ingrained in the respective institutions and have become a symbol of competitiveness. Ultimately, the rivalry serves both teams, both institutions, the sport, and the United States. The friendly rivalry extends beyond the football field - to the pool, where we have gathered coaches from both teams to discuss the importance of maintaining this competitive exchange, even when they do not know when they will be getting on the blocks next to each other. Giving our athletes something to look forward to, something to focus on, a tradition that extends beyond a dual meet - keeps the beat of normalcy alive for all our teams.
