The Programs - The Mallards
Swim Team program is based on the belief that Age Group swimming offers an exciting
and valuable experience in a young person's life. Competitive swimming skills can
be learned by all, natural ability not withstanding. The value of the training however,
goes far beyond that of learning efficiency in the water. In a well-developed program
every participant benefits, whether or not they ever win a race. Competitive swimming
stresses two factors, physical conditioning and mental discipline. Mastering these
factors is not only essential in this sport, but also is required in preparation
for life. Considerable time will be required to become truly competitive, and a
sportsman like approach is essential in clearing the hurdles swimmers encounter.
Immediate benefits however, will be realized in areas such as health, organization
of personal time and improvement in performance at school.
The Mallards Swim Team
Program Objectives are to provide our swimmers with the opportunity to:
- Develop socially and emotionally
- Experience a wholesome, worthwhile, physical, recreational outlet
- Learn sportsmanship and to become aware of team co-operation and pride
- Learn good health habits
- Train and compete at a level consistent with their ability, desires and performance
- Gain self-esteem and worth by making a commitment to the sport
- Learn a sport that can be enjoyed throughout ones entire life
