Legacy Masters Swim Club
Legacy Masters Swim Club has been around for almost a decade. We started out in 2016 with fifteen swimmers, two lanes, and one scheduled workout a week. Today we have a roster of more than sixty swimmers, six different training groups, and eleven scheduled workouts a week. We train at Britannia Pool, steps from Commercial Drive in the heart of East Vancouver, and attend swim meets at venues across the province
Training groups meet 3 times a week, and group members also have the option of attending extra skills sessions for an additional fee. Standby swimmers are assigned to lists according to speed and swimming ability, and they can attend up to 3 workouts and/or skills session per week as per availability.
What is A Masters Swim Club?
Masters swimming is an organized group sport for adults 18 years of age and older.
Swimmers train together under the auspices of a coach and measure their progress by participating in friendly competitions.
Lots of masters swimmers were competitive swimmers growing up – but that doesn’t mean you have to be a masterful swimmer to be a masters swimmer.

Why Swim With Us?
“Brilliant coach, amazing group of people, and great community. Plus, it’s economical compared to other masters clubs in town.”
“You’ll feel so alive when you get to work in the morning. You’ll be starving at 11am. You’ll be fast asleep by 9pm.”
Community
“It’s the community that got me hooked.”
“The community is pretty special. I always look forward to workouts with the group, and to hot tub time after.”
Challenge
“Until my mid 40s, I didn’t think I could ever be a swimmer because a) I sink, and b) I hyperventilated. When I actually did learn to swim, it made me wonder, ‘Hey, where else in my life am I telling myself I can’t do something?”
Fitness
“Swimming is better on the joints as you age.”
“Great full body workout. Low risk of injury. Builds great arms. Feels amazing.”

Last Weekend in Calgary
There are swimming families. Jane’s son is about to overtake his mom in the 100 breaststroke. Her cousins can pick her out in the heats from the look of her strokes. At the 2023 Masters Nationals in Calgary, the three of them sit in the stands and cheer for their aunt, who is also competing.
