Our Values
The Wangaratta Stingrays Swim Club has been founded on the philosophy of 'fun, fair, inclusive and flexible'. We believe that as well as being a great skill for life, swimming is a great way to have fun, keep fit, make friends and promote an active, balanced and healthy lifestyle.
We are a community-based family-friendly swimming club providing regular training to improve and promote fitness and swimming technique for all ages. Our club is committed to being a professional, welcoming and family-friendly organisation enabling members to transition after 'learn to swim' programs through our squad programs to continue their development as swimmers and/or competitors. Members are able to compete locally and, with eligible times, at state or national levels.
