Build a culture of best practise or excellence with a vision to become ‘the best’. Which best? Best in the swim school? In the State? In the World? The answer is up to you!

Pay attention to the every day details. Work towards achieving excellence in every skill, every stroke, every drill, every effort, every day!

Quality can not be an occasional thing. Pay attention to the process of doing everything well daily to keep improving on the current standard.

Persist

Success doesn’t come overnight! There will be times when things don’t go your way or come together in the way that you had hoped.

Many give up before they reach their true potential! Stick with it – you have your dream, you have your plan, you are working towards your goal! Persist and don’t stop!

Mistakes can make us disillusioned and defeated or they can make us stronger and more determined.
