Arnprior Greyfish Masters Swim Club

The Greyfish Master Swim Club is volunteer run swim club focused on improving stroke efficiency, speed and overall fitness in a friendly environment.  Our members range in age from in their 20s all the way up to into their 70s.   The range of abilities is just as large, from just starting to swim laps up to athletes competing in National (and even International) masters meets or Ironman triathlons. 

 

The workouts are geared towards improving stroke techniques, including starts and turns of all 4 competitive strokes (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly).  Improving these skills is essential for those wishing to swim competitively but can also be beneficial for those training for triathlons or just wanting to improve thier fitness.  The workouts can easily be customized to suit individual goals.  Many club members chose to compete in swim meets or triathlons throughout the year to display their skills.  However, competing is completely optional and should not discourage new members from joining. 

 

The club is open to anyone over the age of 18 who is interested in swimming laps and improving their strokes, turns and starts.  Please note that this is not a learn to swim program and it is advised that swimmers can comfortably swim at least 2 laps of the pool without stopping.  

 

Memberships are available for 3, 6 or 12 month terms through the Nick Smith Center.  

 

The only equipment required is a swim suit, goggles and a swim cap. Pull buoys and fins are optional.
