The Aims of the Club
The mission statement of West Suffolk Swimming Club is:

"The aim of the West Suffolk Swimming Club is to provide an environment for the coaching and development of swimming and to provide the opportunity and encouragement to enable all of its membership to reach their full potential within the sport of competitive swimming."

In every sporting organisation, the higher the peak you aim for, the broader the base you need. For this reason, the Club caters for a range of swimmers from those who are just ready to begin their first steps towards competitive swimming right up to full international swimmers. A swimmer's individual progress and improvement, at whatever standard, are what give satisfaction to the Club and its coaches as well as to the swimmers themselves.

West Suffolk Swimming Club provides coaching for all ages and levels of swimmer, and all are welcome. Our aim is to provide an enjoyable environment in which to:

•Help swimmers fulfil their individual potential, and
•Prepare them to compete at a level appropriate to their ability.

The aim is for swimmers to be happy, and for most of them the Club is a highly social place. Equally, the Club expects them to train properly and regularly. Swimming training does demand and develop a degree of self-discipline that is useful in all aspects of life. In addition, all experts agree that it is the very best form of exercise available!

Finally, we must all remember that
West Suffolk Swimming Club exists for its swimmers.
