During the initial lesson, who introduces themselves to the participants?

In an aquatic setting, particularly during an initial lesson, the Pool In Charge (PIC) plays a crucial role in establishing a welcoming and organized environment. The PIC is responsible for overseeing the operation of the facility, ensuring safety protocols are followed, and facilitating a smooth introduction to the program. By introducing themselves to the participants, the PIC helps to set the tone for the lesson, builds rapport with both participants and guardians, and conveys important information regarding the structure and expectations of the program.

The involvement of the PIC in this capacity allows for a seamless transition into the lesson, as they can outline safety practices, introduce instructors, and address any immediate questions or concerns from participants or their guardians. This initial engagement fosters a sense of community and trust, which is essential for a positive learning atmosphere in aquatic programs.
