The purpose of
the Green Bay YMCA sports program is to use competition as a tool for
learning the life-long values of goal-setting and hard work for reward.
Participants should learn to accept winning with humility and defeat with
dignity and strive to try harder.
Coaches, officials, administrators, and parents must create an
environment in which competitors achieve this ultimate objective:
Developing into true Christian athletes.
The Green Bay YMCA competitive swimming team exists to benefit ALL
children who show an interest in training and competing. The objectives of
the program are to help these young athletes develop to their full
potential, while clarifying their personal values.
The team is a tool to reach and teach youth important life values and
decision-making skills. The program stresses self-improvement. Winning is
a secondary goal. Positive support from coaches and parents help to
accomplish the program goals:
* Development of self-esteem
* Development
of lasting friendships
* Development of a lifestyle of health and
fitness
* Development of discipline, cooperation, sportsmanship,
dedication and confidence
* Development of Christian values such as
Caring, Respect, Honesty and Responsibility
* Opportunity for
travel
* Fun
