Swimming reach rescue

During swimming we have been practicing a reach rescuing with a buddy. I was with Liriyah first .Someone needed to get in the pool then the other person needed to stay out of the pool. When Liriyah signaled for help I had to get a pool noodle. When I put it in the pool I had to get it near her arms so she could reach it. She grabbed onto the pool noodle and I had to get both hands and pull her out. When she was near the edge  I had to grab her hands and put pressure on her hands so she could get out. Next, I had to get into the pool and it was Liriyah´s  turn to help me.
