Adult Team-based Training
The Rose Bowl Aquatic Center Masters Swim Team is a team-based adult training program. Coach Chad Durieux supervises the morning, afternoon, and evening workouts. Swimming skill levels range from novice competitive swimmers to former Olympic competitors. Lanes are organized with swimmers grouped according to ability. Some members are training for specific events while most train for broad health and fitness reasons. The atmosphere is a general mixture of dedication and fun.
Masters Swim Team
Rose Bowl Aquatics Center Masters Swimming offers fifteen workouts in an average week. Workouts are typically 1 hour long. We have 3 seasons per year that we train for as well as helping train for open water, triathlons, and other water based sports. We swim all year round with the exception to holidays and days the center is closed. Please contact the coach first before dropping in. cdurieux@rosebowlaquatics.org

Collegiate Swimmers Incentive
In regard to the Rose Bowl Masters swim team, a Collegiate swimmer is a swimmer who during their break(s) comes to train with our team on a regular basis. This Collegiate Swimmer will have access to certain benefits as listed below if they present and meet the qualifying standard.
Benefits:
- Swimmer will be given a 25% discount on the current registration fees for the monthly and quarterly pass while they are swimming with the team. This pass is not transferable.
- Swimmer will have access to all team discounts and sponsor vendors if they chose to represent the team at Regional, National or World events (if they qualify).
- The swimmers will also be able to prorate entrance and exit from the program based on school schedule and discussion with the Head Coach.
If the student is only here on a temporary basis for Thanksgiving or Spring breaks that student may swim with the team free of charge as long as they are USMS registered and are planning on swimming or have swum with the team in the current swim year. This will also be limited to a 6 day period. If the break is longer than 7 days, then they will be required to purchase the monthly pass at a 25% discount. This registration can be extended for a term past graduation date up to the beginning of the next school term.
To Qualify:
- The swimmer must be registered with USMS
- The swimmer must be a full-time student and provide proof of current full-time student status. This will need to be renewed each quarter or semester.
- In a current post graduate program during the time of application and able to provide proof of current student status.
- Meet the approval of Head Coach
The hope of commencing this initiative is to help foster a better longer relationship with our collegiate swimmers. We hope this helps them continue to swim with us or another masters program well after they finish their college or post collegiate degrees.

What are the facilities like at the Center?
The facilities at the Center are world-class in quality and management. (The United States Olympic Swim Team trained here prior to departing for the 2000 Sydney Summer Olympics.) The Center has two outdoor 50-meter Olympic pools. The competition (West) pool can be configured in 25 yard (width) or 50 meter (length) configuration. The recreation (East) pool is always in the 25 yard (width) configuration.
My schedule is unpredictable. Does that affect my eligibility to join the Masters Swim Team?
Everyone understands the demands imposed by family and professional work schedules and, thus, you do not have to start and stop in unison with the team. However, the value of participating with a team will provide you with the greatest benefit in your swimming efforts. Ideally, you should start your workout with the group and finish as much of the workout as possible.
Does the Masters Swim Team attend organized events?
Rose Bowl Masters is a Nationally ranked team in the United States Masters Swimming organization. We compete at local meets throughout the year as well as attending our Local Zone Championships 3 times a year for Short Course Yards, Long Course Meters and Short Course Meters. Attending these competitions or Meets are not required of the team members but it is expected that everyone participates to help the team to grow and become recognized as an international titan. Team members have competed in meets that include FINA Masters World Championships, USA Olympic Trials, USMS Nationals. We also have many other types of athletes that compete in local to international Triathlons and Open Water swims. For more information visit: www.spmasterswim.org or www.usms.org.
