New to Synchronized Swimming?: Parents-Here Is Your Guide! - Paperback

by Jackie Esker Zerrusen (Author)

As a parent new to synchronized swimming, I wanted to support my daughter in her new adventure of learning the sport. But I didn't know where to turn. A Google search and an Amazon search only disclosed so much. That's why I decided to put this guidebook together - to help other parents. As a non-swimming family, until now, I searched for resources and found very little. I was starting at ground zero, so I hunted for information from speed swimming and other synchronized swimming families and coaches. I've compiled the information in a format for first time parents (based on what I have learned through my daughter's club). When I refer to first time parents in this guidebook, it is those family members or legal guardians who are supporting a child new to this sport. Should your daughter try? My answer is "of course!" Especially, if your daughter danced, swam or participated in gymnastics or cheerleading, she will understand and enjoy this sport.
