Welcome
CHAMPS, an Illinois Swimming & USA Swimming Charter Club, proudly continues as we begin our 15th year! The original team goal continues to be successfully met. Goals have and always will include: providing strong athletic & competitive programs; catering to all ages & abilities; motivating & rewarding children using creative training techniques & positive methods of reinforcement. For all young athletes, the critical component is “fun”. This is incorporated into the daily process through team & small group activities, one-on-one interaction, & developing friendships. The coaching staff strives to make sure every athlete achieves their utmost potential with structured and challenging training programs. The team environment is a family atmosphere where children feel safe to take chances. This makes it exciting and rewarding to be a participant and a parent! The experiences gained from the aquatic programs at CHAMPS include life lessons such as: building confidence & self-esteem; learning to set goals; experiencing the success, the rewards or the disappointments based on the outcome of choices; dedication & commitment; respect of self, teammates, & coaches. Participation gives children an advantage as they head into high school sports and future college activities. The positive experiences will carry over into other aspects of their lives as well, especially academics, giving them the best chance to develop into strong, well prepared, health conscious young adults.
