The coaches are starting a new program – “swimmer
of the week”. Each week, one or more swimmers will be
recognized for their efforts during practices and meets; criteria include
individual skills improvement (time drops in one or more strokes;
responsiveness to instruction; proper technique; improvement in weak strokes),
team sportsmanship (regular practice attendance; positive attitude;
self-motivator, good teammate, meet attendance), and competitive consistency
(consistence in stroke technique for two or more strokes, early attendance,
weak stroke improvement, and self-motivation). Swimmers of the meet will be recognized at
each meet and given a special t-shirt.
