Welcome to BISJ Stingrays swimming community.
Welcome to BISJ Stingrays swimming community.
The BISJ Stingrays have a long tradition of excellence, having produced a host of swimmers who have gone on to achieve great successes locally within Jeddah, across the Middle East, and in many cases at a national level in swimmer's home countries.
We aim to develop each swimmer to achieve their full potential, providing opportunities for young swimmers to develop their skills in a safe and encouraging environment. Potential is not measured by performance times but is more about the attitude, commitment, and respect swimmers display.
Through this focus on attitudes, we aim to instill a lifelong passion for swimming, developing a swimming community that will ultimately lead to a successful swimming culture.
A great performance from our Stingrays on Friday, it was great to see some of our newest Stingrays enjoying their first competitive swims.
As always, a huge thank you to our team of Volunteers.
