Infinity Swimming Academy

Our boys in the Top Points Squad and SANJ boys who finished in the Top 10 in South Africa. We are so proud of all of you and can’t wait to see you move up the rankings this season. Keep it up!!

A big congratulations goes out to 17 year old Jaime Mote who has been chosen as part of the South African Squad for the Pan Pacs Competition in Irvine, California.

What an amazing opportunity. She will be swimming the 100m Butterfly at this gala. We are very proud of you, Jaime!!

As a coach you play such a vital role in helping the swimmers reach their full potential. Encouragement, guidance, technical advice and psychological support are only a few of the vital components a coach needs to incorporate. We play a role in the journey to assist but when the race day comes, it all boils down to, THE ATHLETE!!

The truth of the matter is that when an athlete gets older, they need to start taking responsibility for their own journey and what they willing to put in and overcome, will lead to greater success.

The proverb , ‘You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink.’ is such an important one.

When it comes down to top elite swimming it really boils down to how badly you want it as an athlete, what you are willing to put in as well as sacrifice and the fight inside of you to bring out the best possible you on that day.

There can’t be doubts, there can’t be fears, you have to have the belief in yourself to smash it out the park.

Your coach, parents and peers can believe in you and help boost your confidence. We can lead and guide you and get you to a certain place, but YOU are the answer to what happens in that moment.

I am so proud of all the athletes at Infinity and what they have achieved this season. I will continue to help and guide my athletes to be the best they can be, but in this next season I encourage them, just like the horse who will drink as much water when they reach the place to drink, to fully immerse themselves in ‘the water’ and not hold back one bit. You all have got this. Let’s go!!
