Swimming Coaches Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last seven years coaching at club level and I’ve seen how small adjustments in technique and practice planning can add up. In my current role, I’ve helped a squad of 18 swimmers lift their season PBs across freestyle, backstroke and medley events, with participation consistently turning up to meets. I know the work that goes into keeping sessions focused and injury-free, and I’ve found clear, practical ways to plan blocks that fit both skill level and season timing. I’m drawn to [Company Name] because of the emphasis you place on structured development and smart competition progression. I’ve built weekly practice plans, video analyse sessions, and short, targeted drills that suit swimmers ranging from development to progression levels. I’m comfortable with recruiting, coordinating entries, and keeping parents informed about progress and meet schedules. I’m also comfortable using timing systems and basic data to track progress without overloading the athletes. In a recent season, I introduced a progressive set of technique drills and time-based practice blocks for a group of 12 improving swimmers. Over eight weeks, their turns and starts became noticeably quicker and their sprint paces stabilised under pressure in races. The team started posting faster 50m and 100m times at club meets, and the group gained confidence in events they’d previously avoided. I emphasise honest feedback, steady routines, and practical goal setting in every session. I’m available for a chat about how I can contribute to [Company Name]. If there’s an opportunity to discuss current swimmers and upcoming meets, I’m happy to find a suitable time. Kind regards, [Your Name]
