Organization: LOYOLA BLAKEFIELD AQUATICS
Mission: The organization is a competitive youth swim club that provides coaching, pool space, apparel and motivation to 100-150 youth athletes. This includes participation in United States Swimming sanctioned events.
Activities: Provided a great outlet for the kids during this very tough year of COVID. We were able to secure outdoor pool space and were able to let the kids swim while keeping them safe and healthy with all of the right COVID protocols. As such, we were able to achieve increased motivation, successful competition (for parts of the year), physical growth, development of commitment and increased self confidence in about 125 youth athletes through coaching and competitive swimming.
