MISSION

Our mission is to equip young athletes with the work ethic and skills needed to become leaders in and out of the pool through focused and dedicated coaching while in a safe and supportive environment.

VISION

Our vision is to create and sustain a high-performance, focused program with goals of competing at a National and International level.

PHILOSOPHY  

At Swim Torrance, we believe success in the water and in life is forged through hard work in a supportive and positive environment. Our coaches are technically focused and dedicated to improving their craft. Athletes at all levels of the program will be taught competitive skills and develop the proper work ethic to turn those skills into success. As a staff we see this as a four part focus.   

Swim Torrance is: 

• Team supported: Parents, teammates, and coaches all play a huge role in the success of your athlete. We are only as good as the group.
• Technically driven: Technique equals efficiency and speed.
• Physically and mentally challenging: There is no getting around hard work, however being physically tough is only part of the game. It takes mental resilience to be dedicated to a career-long process and a high level of focus on the process of skill development.
• Process focused: We take things one step at a time and allow athletes to improve at their own individual rate. Cut times and time standards are not the focus; how we get there is.
• Invested in each individual: Not only do we acknowledge each child as an athlete, but also a person. We care about their safety and protection, as well as how they grow within the community.
