COLORADO SPRINGS – USA Swimming announced today that GoSwim, the sport’s leading provider of educational video content, is the official technique video supplier of USA Swimming.
Designed to make it easy and affordable for coaches to show proper technique videos to swimmers, GoSwim’s subscription platform and new mobile application give coaches a simple, inexpensive way to teach swim technique.
“GoSwim offers a deep library of technical videos that benefit swimmers of all ages and abilities,” said Frank Busch, National Team Director at USA Swimming. “Coaches can easily access the footage on or off deck and USA Swimming staff can use the videos for education in presentations to enhance our competitive success.”
Thousands of archived videos are a click away from the USASwimming.org homepage. Each week, USA Swimming will offer a highlighted technical spotlight video to its members.
“It’s a great honor to be selected as a content provider to USA Swimming,” said Glenn Mills, co-founder of GoSwim. “For more than 10 years, we’ve been filming some of the country’s greatest swimmers, capturing the things they do – that every swimmer can learn to do. By working with USA Swimming, we can now make all of that stellar swim technique – thousands of video clips – available to swimmers and coaches at every level of the sport.”
In GoSwim’s soon-to-be-released Deckshots app, coaches can safely and securely upload swimming footage of individual swimmers in just a few clicks. The swimmer can then compare their technique to other swimmers on the GoSwim platform.
