The Sharks are a community-based program with something to offer
swimmers of all ages and abilities. From beginning swimmers to
elite swimmers, all are welcome, all are valued.
As a matter of team
philosophy, we work to develop in our swimmers. . .
|
● |
passion for the sport of swimming. |
|
● |
a lifetime appreciation of the rewards that come
from hard work, perseverance, discipline, and
teamwork. |
|
● |
the self-esteem that comes through the
accomplishment of personal objectives. |
The Sharks define winning as personal improvement – beating old
times and achieving personal bests. Kids see their efforts pay
off in objective terms; finishing times need no interpretation.
While winning races is nice, the philosophy of the Sharks
teaches our kids that as long as they improve, they win. It’s a
healthy and inclusive view of competition that builds
self-esteem through genuine accomplishment. |
