2022 Annual Coach Appreciation Week May 1-7
Our coaches have always been the backbone of Pacific Masters, but never more so than these past crazy years. Many of us depended on our coaches to keep us together as a community - even if we couldn't have regular workouts.
Whether it is providing stroke instruction, helping us stay injury free, or just keeping us sane, our coaches are an essential element of our swimming routine.
Despite their importance, it is easy to take our coaches for granted and forget to thank them for their efforts. For this reason, Pacific Masters Swimming established the Annual Pacific Masters Coach Appreciation Week designated as the week beginning with the first Sunday in May, this year, May 1-7.
While we encourage our members to regularly thank their coaches, please consider Coach Appreciation Week as an opportunity to let them know how much you value their efforts. Here are some ideas:
- A card or email telling the coach how their instruction helped you accomplish a goal
- A gift card for coffee, ice cream, a movie, or other treat
- Flowers, candy, book, wine, or whatever you think your coach may enjoy
- A massage or spa day
- A certificate for a weekend getaway or special meal
