TRANSITION "The process or period of changing from one state or condition to another." "A movement, development or evolution from one form, stage or style to another." It's not something you tend to give much thought to. It just happens and you deal with it as it comes. Whether it's going from finishing school and moving into the work force. From working nine-to-five into being a stay at home mum. From a corporate job into retirement. Sometimes it's a smooth ride and other times it can be a tumultous journey. But how are you supposed to cope when it all goes pear shaped? Who do you turn to? What help is out there? Contained within the pages of this book, some of the best female swimmers Australia has seen have shared their experiences of how they managed to cope through their transition. An informative read for everyone, Fish Out Of Water will give you an insight into the personal struglgles and victories associated with the transition from elite athlete into 'normal' adult life.
