Kaleb Stoppel Head Swim Coach 3 rd season as the PV Head Coach PV Assistant Coach for 3 seasons prior Prairie Village Assistant Pool Manager Teaches High School Math Coaches High School Track and Football, and Girls Swim

We only ask three things from a PV Piranha Swimmer or Diver: 1) Always try your BEST! 2) Be PROUD of your performances! 3) Have FUN!!! Program Philosophy

The Coaching Staff’s goal is to not only improve upon individual swim skills, but also instill values of a well rounded athlete, always putting forth your best effort, and BEING PROUD of that effort! It is our hope that swimmers will understand how a positive attitude towards hard work and always trying your best in what you do, can extend beyond the pool, and into the classroom or any other activity that one can set out to achieve.

Sign Up Genius is for parents to sign up online for swim meet volunteer jobs. A successful home meet requires over 60 volunteer positions to be filled by the participating teams. A swim program cannot be successful without parent support and help volunteering. Not only would you be helping out your kid's swim team, but you can also have one of the best seats in the house for a meet!
