Insights on collaboration with grant application process with Play.CLOH.org[]
JW from AutoCoach wrote in part in an email on 3/16:[]
That sounds exciting, and we think there are a number of aspects AutoCoach equipment can encourage and foster. Certainly there are the core race timing and race starting competencies, but additionally the communication and event management aspects are there as evident and very worthwhile exposures and competencies. It’s control and people management in essence – similar to umpiring and refereeing experience.
There are also opportunities to step them into advanced territory, with the ability to get into Stroke Index, Stroke Rate, DPS, Velocity, etc – all things that are not generally even available to swimmers and coaches. For youngsters to gain some insight into such measures, and an understanding of the importance of tempo and motion efficiency, would be radical. Some won’t be keen on that sort of depth, but for those that are, it will be a great opportunity. And it brings exposure to data recording and interpretation, a growth field in itself.
