Trident Swim Foundation

The Trident Swim Foundation seeks to build superior community-based athletic and academic programs where student athletes can achieve their personal goals. We emphasize individual and team growth, a thorough knowledge of swimming, the spirit of sportsmanship, a healthy lifestyle, and academic excellence. All activities are offered fee-free.

The Trident Swim Foundation’s swimming and tutoring curriculum, the Swimmer Scholar Program, is designed as a foundation for student success, both before and after graduation. The Program is based on three core principles:

• Discipline — Through mandatory attendance at both structured swim practices and afterschool study sessions, participants will learn the rewards and necessity of hard work in and out of the pool.
• Self-confidence — Through competition and academic improvement, participants will better understand their abilities and their strengths.
• Teamwork — Swimming is both an individual and a team- based sport and participants will learn how to support the goals of the team by swimming in meets, both on relays, and in their individual events.
