WHO WE ARE

The DESOTO SWIFT TRACK CLUB is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt non-profit youth summer track organization. We are a member of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) Southwestern Association and USA Track & Field Southwestern Association (USATF). Sanctioned by the Desoto Parks and Recreation Department, the DESOTO SWIFT TRACK CLUB, with the help of a host of dedicated volunteer coaches and support staff, serve the youth of Desoto and surrounding areas.

Young athletes proudly display medals and certificates at a track event.

OUR MISSION

To provide each athlete the opportunity to reach his or her full potential by both developing athletic speed, endurance, and strength and encouraging high self-esteem, personal accountability, self-discipline, goal setting, and goal achievement. Desoto SWIFT seeks to develop well-rounded individuals who learn not only the ground rules of athletic training but also the importance of education in an atmosphere conducive to developing sound character.
