Foster a spirit of healthy competition. Swimmers demonstrate positive action toward others during practice, meets, wins, & losses. Swimmers learn to challenge themselves and through these efforts, inspire their teammates.
Physical Fitness
Swimming is a lifestyle that can extend far beyond the pool deck. In the sport of Swimming you learn that consistent repetition of the right physical and mental exercises lends to a lifetime of physical well-being.
Individual Success
Success can be defined by each individual swimmer through thoughtful goal setting. Success can be achieved through focused effort, consistent work ethic, and a great attitude.
