About Our Team
Our emphasis at PHSC is becoming stronger swimmers while having fun and swimming faster! We encourage ALL swimmers to join us, even those with very little experience. On Swim Team, the emphasis is on the swimmer: swimming is an INDIVIDUAL sport with a TEAM result! We DO NOT focus on place-finished, but on swimmer's individual finish time: as they get stronger & more confident, they get faster! It's a great accomplishment to start the season only being able to go half way, and ending the season swimming a WHOLE length -- all WHILE your teammates CHEER you on!! Joining Swim Team, your swimmer will have MANY opportunities for success & having fun while learning to be SAFE & STRONG in the water.
Benefits of Swim Team
