“As enjoyable as swimming can be, training can get monotonous and we coaches have a hard job of making endless lengths interesting. One of the best ways of keeping it exciting is to use additional equipment other than those standard necessities such as a swimming costume and goggles. For a list of explanations about the equipment used for swimming please see our website www.anacondaswimmingclub.org.uk“.
