| FCST Coaching Philosophy
|
Our program provides progressive development through a series of age group and ability/commitment levels.At each level we strive to recognize and positively reinforce each swimmer’s pursuit and attainment of defined goals. At each successive level more complex stroke technique drills and advanced theory are introduced, and more practice time and endurance/dry-land work are required. Our coaching staff firmly believes that engaging in competitive opportunities teaches swimmers valuable life lessons, such as how to control anxiety and stress, and how to deal positively with both success and failure. |
| FCST staff, swimmers, and parents should strive to demonstrate our team values at all team functions: |
