April 25th and 26th, Midwestern Swimming is hosting a coaching clinic in Lincoln, Nebraska. This clinic is presented as an alternative to the many other great clinics out there that may be too far away or too far into the competitive season for some coaching staffs and teams.

Speakers include GOSwim.tv’s Glenn Mills, AGUA’s Rachel Stratton-Mills, Proactive Coaching’s Rob Miller, Sports Psychologist Pete Thompson, USA National Team Coach Coley Stickels, the University of Nebraska’s Women’s Coaching staff of Pat Rowan, Pablo Morales and Dry-land Expert Vern Gambetta.
