Royton AS & WPC's philosophy:
Physical Fitness
Swimming helps develop high quality aerobic endurance, flexibility, co-ordination and muscle strength, thus building a strong foundation for a lifetime of good health
Character Development
Being part of a swim team fosters self-discipline, self-confidence, responsibility, perseverance, good sportsmanship and teamwork. These attributes can produce world-class athletes! Swimmers learn to strive for excellence and to face challenges with courage, and they come to understand that if they do their very best, there are no failures
Building Relationships
Many close friendships have had their beginnings at our pools, not just between swimmers, but between their families as well. Becoming involved with the swimming and water polo teams can also promote closeness within the family unit, as parents commit to helping swimmers achieve their goals
