swim coaches
Stroke technique teachers
Swim coaches are people who train swimmers, teaching technique and overseeing workouts for competitive or recreational athletes.
They work at pools, schools, and athletic clubs, developing stroke mechanics and race strategy.
The swim coaches had us doing sprint sets until our arms gave out.
The term functions as a unit—a swim coach coaches swimming, not someone who coaches while swimming.
