The Swim Teams
The Jasper Valley Swim Team is a competitive swim team for children 19 years and younger. The team is a member of the Granite State Swimming Association (GSSA). The team has proven to be fun for members and provide a rich and fulfilling experience for all. Since 2000, the team has grown to over 120 members of all ages.
The team has won the GSSA Division Two Championship in 1994 and 2002, and most recently in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010! They have also won the Milford Rotary swim meet in 2003, 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2010.
The purpose of the team is to provide summer recreation for young members who enjoy competitive swimming and want to improve endurance and strokes while competing in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Swimmers will have the opportunity to compete individually and as part of relay teams within their age group, as well as being a part of the entire team.
The coaches attend practices and meets, confirm meet schedules, keep complete rosters, and keep track of swimmers’ attendance, progress, and performances. The coaches work on stroke technique and refinement through drills, as well as overall endurance. Starts, turns, and finishes are also taught and/or honed. The coaches will also look to improve team unity and morale, as well as encourage and inspire them to learn good sportsmanship. It is the coaches wish that swimmers will understand the efforts required to reach their individual goals.
