How You Can Make Your Swimmer Better

Be positive. Help your child look beyond today and toward his or her goals.

Be patient. Swimmers develop at different paces, but all swimmers need time. No matter how your child seems to be doing in comparison to other swimmers, don't push. When he or she is ready, the big improvement will come.

Please make sure that your swimmer arrives to all workouts, and meets on time.
If your child is late, he or she will not benefit from a proper warm-up and/or perhaps not receive an important message from the coaches.

Although swimming has a strong individual element, your child is, most of all, part of a team. We encourage families to stay until the meet is over to show team spirit and pride (and help clean up!).

The single most important thing that you can do for your child is to help him/her develop a strong sense of sportsmanship and a positive self-image. With your help, this will be swimming's best benefit to your child.
