With Christmas fast-approaching, I like to have a little bit of Christmas-themed fun with my swimmers in the last session of the year. Get the Christmas tunes on (if anyone can remember how to link to the pool bluetooth) and just do something a little bit different. This year, I went with a 12 Days of Christmas-based session, which I've shared below. So, if you're looking for something a little different this year, why not use the Christmas session plan below.
