Basic Positions Games

As we know synchro is all about repetition, repetition, repetition. At the recreational level especially that can get boring! Here are some games that can get the repetition of the basic postitions in that they need while having fun!

Freeze Tag

Ages 5-10, 4+ People

Water Activity

No Equipment

We all know the game freeze tag! With just little adjustments it becomes not only fun, but a great coaching tool!

Pick a tagger (or multiple for larger groups). Remember to change who the tagger is frequently

When a swimmer gets tagged they have to hold a backlayout (or anyother position for that matter) until someone swims under them!

Reverse Leap Frog

Ages 8-12, 3+ People

Water Activity

No Equipment

Have group get into a line. Everyone except for person on end gets into a back layout (sailboat, tub, pretzel would also work).

The swimmer not in back layout swims under the swimmers one at a time, popping up in-between like leap frog!

Make sure to switch to that everyone gets a turn at both roles!
