Written by Coach Matt
In my year and a half with the FISH, plus my years of experience coaching summer league, I have never had a more coachable athlete than Molly Ellor. I define a coachable athlete as someone who is committed to her or his own development, who is hungry for feedback, and open to anything that may improve him or herself. Molly's drive and desire to learn and get better, coupled with her maturity, and her continued dedication to the FISH swim team, make Molly a very worthy FISH of the Month.
Congratulations on a spectacular Christmas Champs. Huge drops in time! Lots of best times! Many amazing swims! I personally think this might have been one of the best meets in the history of the FISH, in terms of percentage of best times, and average time drop!
Take time to reflect on how much you have improved since the fall season began. I challenge you to show the same improvement between now and your Championship meets in March. If this is the logical middle of our season, let's also make it the half-way point of our progress!
Take this opportunity to evaluate what you have accomplished, how far you have come towards meeting your season goals. Some of you might have already accomplished them; they need to be reset! Some of you might be a lot closer; you're on the right path! Some of you may need to become more diligent!
You will have plenty of opportunity to work towards meeting
those goals with Holiday practices just around the corner. These can go a long ways towards your
success in the spring.
