“I have been training under Barry Swanson since 2002. With his coaching and guidance I was fortunate enough to earn a Track & Field Scholarship to a top Division I University. Staying in contact with Barry while in college, I went on to have a very successful collegiate career, finishing up #2 on the All-Time Career Wins list and with the #2 furthest throw in the Big East Conference History. After college I stayed training with Barry and went on to finish National runner up at the 2010 USATF National Club Championships. A Track & Field coach myself now, with an NCAA Division I National Champion program, I have had the fortune to travel all over the country. Between traveling as an athlete and as a coach I have had the fortune to meet hundreds of different coaches. I can honestly say that there isn’t another coach I would rather train with than Barry. He is very knowledgeable and always keeps learning, only improving on top of what he already knows. Not only is Barry a great coach, but an even better person, he has truly been like a second father to me. For everything he has ever done for me and helped me with I am forever indebted. I can honestly say I would not be where I am today if not for Barry Swanson.”
-ANDREW DUBS, Virgina Tech Assistant Head Coach

“Barry Swanson is not only one of top throwing coaches in the East, but his training programs also help maximize the performance of sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers, and middle distance runners through periodized speed and strength training. I coached with Barry at the Glen Mills School for over 20 years. Largely due to Barry’s efforts, Glen Mills was “the” dominant Track and Field power in Pennsylvania as well as one of the premier programs in the Eastern U.S.”
