FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

MISSION STATEMENT

We work hard to achieve goals by being "the best we can be" because personal achievement is the ultimate challenge in our sport.  We will achieve this by swimming beyond our previous performances and by never, never giving up.

  I will be the best I can be by:

1. Continually challenging myself to go  beyond my comfort zone.

2.  Making the necessary sacrifices.

3.  Believing in my ability and the  strength  of my purpose.

4.  Valuing excellence, determination, and dedication in both  training and competition.

5.  Having faith and confidence in, and being supportive of my teammates.

6.  Not making excuses but taking responsibility for my development, and performances.

7.  Seeking feedback and making contributions to the program.

8.  Being tolerant of differences in others and respecting them for who
     they are and what they have to offer.

9.  Accepting disappointments and frustrations and overcoming them  by working together.

10. Having faith in the course of action chosen for the team and being
      committed to it knowing that it may not always be my preference.

We choose to do this NOT because it is easy but because it is hard.
