Our Philosophy

Our purpose

To provide a program where swimmers of all levels are coached professionally and passionately.

To create an environment where everyone feels welcomed, valued, supported and enthused to become their best self and give their best effort.

What we do

Our program is designed to ensure we master all the fundamentals of swimming technique, skills, training and racing.

We nurture a culture where swimmers feel comfortable to express themselves openly and thus create lifelong friends and memories

How we do it

We use our squad values to create a positive, driven and friendly culture of success and happiness.

We have a graded squad system that progressively increases with load, standards and expectations. We ensure there is a squad for everyone from simply swimming for fitness to racing for Australia and everything in between.

Coaching philosophy

Produce speed with great technique.

Progressively overload capacity and power via periodised planning.

Build a trusting family-focused team by empowering athletes, coaches and parents.

Maintain health and wellbeing through a balance of training, racing, study, family, friends and down time.

Encourage goal-setting and dreaming big.

Enjoying the journey is paramount and this is encouraged through practising mindfulness, gratitude and empathy.

Pymble Ladies’ College values

Respect. Responsibility. Care. Courage. Integrity.

These values are highly regarded and respected across all areas of Pymble Ladies’ College.

It is through these values that all swimmers feel welcome, aligned and supported.
