SwimRVA Rapids Class 6 - SENIOR GROUP

SwimRVA Class 6 Rapids – Senior Group is for athletes looking to challenge themselves to be leaders in and out of the water. SwimRVA believes in the development of the whole person. The Senior Group focuses on balancing commitments and growing interests while challenging our abilities and limits in the water. Self-confidence derived from positive self-talk is a major focus of coach-athlete communication. Each season is designed around the championship meet. Swimmers learn individual success is directly tied to team success that starts each day and each warm-up. Senior Group swimmers will aim to achieve in all aspects of their lives and set challenging goals. Swimming goals will grow from the state to the national level.
