Coach of the Year

Dear Coach, Hope this email finds you well and enjoying the summer.

Director Dave Stott, who has coached swimming for twenty years, hopes that with this film, we will entertain and inspire kids all over the country to learn to swim. Another goal of this film is to raise awareness about drowning as the leading cause of accidental deaths and to help kids all over the country learn to swim safely. The underdog story has been told before, but not for our sport.

We wanted to ask you and your team to help spread the word about COACH OF THE YEAR, and get you & you...
