The Waves Athlete Leadership Team
The Athlete Leadership Team (ALT) is a small group of passionate, driven young athletes who will work closely with their coaches to enhance the overall Goodman Waves Swim Team experience. They will promote positive behaviors and represent their peers at practice, meets, and social events. The ALT is made up of swimmers ages 11-18 who demonstrate strong leadership qualities, excellent communication skills, and a commitment to fostering a supportive, inclusive, and motivating environment for all athletes. Members of the Athlete Leadership Team will lead by example, demonstrating good sportsmanship and setting a positive example for younger swimmers.
The primary role of the ALT is to act as a link between the coaching staff and the swimmers. The ALT will provide feedback, share ideas, and help to shape team culture. Duties of the ALT may include:
- Leading team cheers at swim meets
- Spreading team spirit at social events
- Providing mentorship to new teammates
- Planning and leading ALT practices
- Creating new team traditions
- Advocating for the needs of the team
