Masters Swim Clubs

A Masters Swim club is organized for the purpose of training, fitness, and enjoyment of swimming. You do not have to compete to be a member of a swim club. Clubs may operate in one individual facility or have workout times in multiple facilities. Workouts are usually under the direction of an on-deck coach. Clubs offer an opportunity to compete but competition in not required. Most importantly, clubs offer camaraderie and social opportunities to swimmers.
