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.

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.
