Masters’ Swim Club

Competitive or fitness swimmers alike can join Masters Swimming at the Sonny Werblin Recreation Center's 50 meter Olympic swimming pool.  You must be 17 years or older to participate in the Rutgers Masters Swim Club.  You do not have to be affiliated with the University to participate, refer below for details.  There is no question that the motivation and instruction a coach provides is a powerful advantage.  Research has shown that interval training, an approach favored by most coaches, has innumerable benefits over simple lap swimming.  Additionally, you will have the opportunity to have your strokes videotaped for more technical coaching and feedback information.  Fins are not a requirement for participation and  available upon request on deck. Restrictions and blackout days may apply and will be announced by the coaches.  For schedule and competition information, please refer to the link bar on the left.
