Why Compete? Through competition, we witness the incredible physical performances of those who not only have a vision but also the skills to express it. In swimming, both physical and psychological attributes are integral. As coaches, we monitor these through concrete performance markers—markers set in competition. The brain is the strongest "muscle" in the body. Through competition, athletes toughen their minds, and the body follows. To improve, athletes must evaluate where they are, then commit to change and growth. Competitive sports present hardships and obstacles that build strength of spirit....

Last night the Boston Celtics won the NBA Championships against the Dallas Mavericks led by Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. The Celetics were stacked with not just great talent, but outstanding leaders and TEAM PLAYERS like Derrick White. Earlier this season we conducted and interview with Derrick White's father, Richard White. I'm sharing this interview again as I believe it sends a great message to all swimmers and parents.

As a coach it is my job to be ultra-critical and constructive towards your children. As a developing athlete sometimes it’s not always the easiest to hear the words “you can do better”. So, thank you parents for always being there, driving your athletes to practice, welcoming them with a dry towel, and reminding after a big loving hug and warm dinner that...

As the season comes closer and closer to an end opportunities to become a better swimmer are more and more valuable. I want to inspire all swimmers to find purpose and meaning in what we do every step of the way. Swim practice is never just at the pool.
