Mission Statement and Program Structure

 

MISSION STATEMENT:

Motivate and assist swimmers of all ages and abilities by preparation and training to achieve swimming performance beyond the boundary of their talents and physical gifts in the belief that this experience will prove valuable to them as they grow and develop.

PROGRAM STRUCTURE:

Jewish Community Center Aquatics is a full service program that starts with learn-to-swim, advances to competitive swimming from beginning through nationally ranked and progresses all the way to a Master Swim Program for adults. Each participant in the program is evaluated and placed in the appropriate group that best suits his or her well being. Sound technique and proper fundamentals are stressed at all levels with each level being a natural transition to the next level.

At each level of the Sailfish program, swimmers are instructed to strive for excellence. Excellence in this sense represents the achievement of that level at which you know that you have done your utmost to become the best you can be. This philosophy is consistent throughout the program, and every Sailfish, novice to Master Swimmer is encouraged to do his/her best.

* We are one of the top USA Swimming Teams in Western Pennsylvania.

* We have developed numerous outstanding swimmers at various levels:   Age Group - Middle School - Maccabi - High School - Junior National - Senior National - International – Olympic.

* We provide the program, coaching and motivation for each individual swimmer.

* Most of our swimmers have earned college scholarships or gotten into the school of their choice.

 The JCC Sailfish Swim Team is over 60 years old.

 

The JCC Sailfish is partially funded by the Western Pennsylvania Jewish Sports Hall of Fame.
