Wescott Triton Force Swim Team Mission Statement and Philosophy
The Swim Team mission is to:
Provide an enjoyable and safe recreational experience for children. Swim Team is, first and foremost, fun;
Encourage and facilitate maximum participation in swimming for all Team members, regardless of swimming skill;
Demonstrate the benefits of work, practice and self discipline to improve swimming skills; and
Promote teamwork and the principles of good sportsmanship.
The Wescott Tritons Swim Team philosophy is that although there are formal, competitive swim meets that involve trying to win races and score points than the opposing team, each swimmer should take pride in personal development and improvement. A swimmer is always swimming against him/herself, vying to improve his/her times. That effort is always more important than winning or losing.
