4. 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

5. 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. Program Philosophy

A swim program cannot be successful without parent support and help volunteering.
