Our Motto
Pride, Discipline, Loyalty and Commitment
These are key words, which are used in our club's motto, as well as reinforced by our coaching staff to all groups of swimmers. Every athlete will come to learn that pride in oneself comes from doing and accomplishing things that are challenging and difficult. Pride also comes from belonging to an organization made up of people who share common desires and pursue their goals with boldness, confidence and mutual support. Athletes are encouraged to support club activities, wear team colors and speak with pride about our organization.
We believe that the "will to prepare to win" is the essence of discipline, commitment and good sportsmanship. Taking responsibility for the things we have control over and having the desire to work consistently to bring about attainment of goals and objectives are characteristics that our organization promotes. Athletes are encouraged to be honest with themselves, their parents and coaches, and accept responsibility for their actions.
Mutual respect for one another is promoted, and by helping and encouraging others, athletes come to learn the values of loyalty and team spirit. Individual achievements mean so much more when shared with a group of people who care and share similar goals.
The Regina Optimist Dolphin Swim Club is proud to be a youth organization, which promotes the development of such life skills as pride, discipline, loyalty, independence and respect for oneself and others.
