Mentorship

Once a month we host a "mentor" practice at Dishman for all our swimmers. These practices are fun and rewarding for everyone that participates. We pair buddies (less experienced swimmers) with mentors (more experienced high school swimmers) for the practice. Mentors and their buddies work together during the practice on starts, turns and other racing techniques.


This program not only provides an opportunity to interact with members that might swim at different site pools but it also gives our high school swimmers the opportunity to share and model their knowledge of the sport. It creates and fosters a sense of One Team for everyone that participates.
