Initiative — In Swim

Taking action before being asked

Initiative in swimming means diving in to help, improve, or lead without waiting for someone to tell you. Whether you help set up lanes, encourage teammates, or add an extra effort to your turns, initiative shows leadership and commitment.

Reflection Questions:

  1. When was the last time you helped a teammate without being asked?
  2. How can taking initiative improve your skills and confidence?
  3. What’s one thing you could start doing today to make practice better for everyone?
