Mission
![Page 4: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
To encourage participation in the sport of Athletics by providing a positive
and supportive environment where athletes can achieve
their individual potential.
![Page 5: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Our main objective is to strive to improve with each effort and to stay
up to date with the latest trends. We want to provide nothing less than the best for our
members as individuals as well as athletes or
coaches.
![Page 6: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Ultimately we want to produce
international results.
![Page 7: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Nothing stays the same, it either gets
better or it gets worse and if we are
not continually striving to get
better we will get worse.
![Page 8: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
“Adapt and thrive, or fall
behind”

Swakop Striders Athletics Club is a non-profit organisation that is focused on providing
an enjoyable and constructive
environment where athletes can develop character and master
athletic skills
![Page 11: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Our goal is to produce an atmosphere where athletes of all levels can flourish and we
can work together to ultimately create an environment where international results
can be attained.
![Page 12: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The core focus is to build a solid
base by developing a
strong grass-roots feeder system.
![Page 13: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The coaching staff is committed to
providing the best possible
instruction in the sport of Athletics
![Page 14: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Our objective in the process is not only
focused on producing elite athletes, but on cultivating exemplary
citizens. We want to pass along good values and life skills, and in the process make better
athletes.
![Page 15: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
We do not believe in complacen
cy!
![Page 16: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Complacency is the success disease: it
takes root when you’re feeling good about whom you are
and what you’ve achieved.
![Page 17: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Anytime you stop striving to
get better, you’re bound to get worse.
![Page 18: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Excellence isn’t a destination. It’s a process that must
be continually improved. (Pat Riley – THE WINNER WITHIN, 1994)
![Page 19: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Our main focus is to strive to improve with
each effort and to stay up to date with the latest trends
![Page 20: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Philosophy
![Page 21: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Participation is encouraged at a
young age in order to reach
maximum potential as an
adult.
![Page 22: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The program is a long term venture.
Often, young athletes learn
beginning techniques from coaches who may not know the most
up to date techniques.
![Page 23: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Less updated skills could result in fewer great athletes down
the road, especially if some of those
techniques result in bad habits that are
hard to change.
![Page 24: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Young people need to learn
good skills from the beginning to
eliminate the forming of bad
technical habits.
![Page 25: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Therefore, it is important that
athletes receive excellent instruction
at a young age, in order to attain high
performance results in the future.
![Page 26: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
At Swakop Striders Athletics Club the aim is to recruit athletes at a young age and focus on developing a sound foundation of technical skills for the years to
come.
![Page 27: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Swakop Striders Athletics Club is
committed towards coaching at all levels of the sport, primarily focusing on developing
elite athletes.
![Page 28: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
We strongly encourage participation at a very
early stage, with 6 years of age being the ideal.
Our primary focus is the nurturing of young athletes into adult
champions rather than attempting to recruit
adults
![Page 29: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Swakop Striders Athletics Club plans to
provide coaching throughout all the age groups. Consider that when constructing a solid building, the
engineer will begin with a solid foundation at the
basement, not on the roof or on the second
floor.
![Page 30: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
It is crucial that athletes receive
good instruction at a young age. This will develop good habits and assist them in reaching
their optimum potential.
![Page 31: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
At Swakop Striders Athletics Club the athlete is
at the centre of our model not
only as an athlete but also as a
person.
![Page 32: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The most important
element of a good sports
program is the end product.
![Page 33: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Our end product is not only an outstanding
athlete, but also an outstanding
citizen.
![Page 34: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Optimum performance will be attained when the
emphasis is on character
development as well as athletic
improvement.
![Page 35: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Having a positive attitude not only toward sport, but also toward life is
paramount.
![Page 36: SWAKOP STRIDERS Development. Success requires vision and dedication.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110303/5517ec31550346c6568b4994/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Skills acquired in sport easily transfer into
facets of life.
