What STARS stands for

S

Sportsmanship

Our athletes strive to display great sportsmanship with their teammates, competitors, and coaches. Win or not, be brave in the attempt!

T

Teamwork

Stars athletes work together to improve and encourage one another to achieve. Team relays are the best! We are all better together.

A

Attitude

We display a positive "can do" attitude and welcome new opportunities and challenges. Rough seas make for good sailors. Be positive. You can do it!

R

Respect

We show mutual respect and care for one another at all times, both in and out of the pool. We embrace those differences that make us unique.

S

Socialization

We love to have fun as a team. We have frequent social events to strengthen our friendships with one another. Our teammates are the best!
