ABOUT SCSC
Sarpy County Swim Club is not your ordinary swim team. We are focused on developing youth in a safe and supportive environment. While we strive to be the best swim team that we can, and we are confident that we have some of the most knowledgeable coaches implementing the latest in swimming technique and best practices, we also know that there is much more to be gained by competing on a swim team than just medals and best times.
Times and Achievements will fade... but the bonds our kids make with each other, and the memories will last a lifetime. In addition, swimmers learn valuable life skills and teamwork!
Our job as coaches and administrators is simple. It is to care for our athletes and provide them with the best coaching. If we do that, we will achieve what we have set out to achieve... Personal and Team Excellence!
