The coaches at teamipswich like all swimmers to have the junior finis kickboard and pullbuoy. These are perfect for younger swimmers to gain confidence with and enjoy mastering their swimming techniques. Larger boards, even with hand holds, are more difficult to manoeuvre and can distract the swimmer from their stroke.  Larger pullbuoys are not recommended for junior swimmers as they offer too much buoyancy and so force the head into the water causing an incorrect body position.

Any colour of mesh bag can be used, the three most economical options are shown here, others, more robust or more brightly coloured can also be used and can be located on the equipment, mesh bag pages.

Please don’t forget to add long bladed swimming fins in your child’s trainer size. If there is a gap between the swimmers foot and the fin a pair of ankle sock can be worn, the fins should be neat fitting, but tight fins will cause cramp. The fin size determines the colour of the fin.

......Don't forget a water bottle, ideally two, one with water to keep hydrated and one with juice for some energy when needed.
