Every Sedona Swim Team
swimmer, parent and Coach is dedicated to developing a
comprehensive, yet fun competitive swim program. What sets us
apart from other programs is that we view all swimmers
equally.
Swimmers of all ages and abilities are encouraged to rise to their
highest possible fitness levels, and pursue competition. However,
since only one person can win an event, we emphasize the importance
of working hard to improve your time in each competition. This is
the best measure of success! In this way our swimmers
develop self-discipline and internal motivation. We
emphasize fundamental swimming skills, character growth,
sportsmanship, and friendly, healthy competition.
Of upmost importance is highlighting the enjoyment and benefits of
swimming as a life-long activity.
