About our Club

1. How big is the pool?

Champagne Pool is a 25 yard pool.


2. Are there any requirements to join?

Generally speaking, Masters Swim Clubs are for people with some swimming skill. You must be 18 years of age or older and we ask that you be able to swim 100 meters without stopping, and be able to swim 1km in about 40 minutes. We do all four strokes, and expect you to learn and practice each stroke with the club (unless otherwise unable due to injury).


3. Will I get coaching?

Yes, we have dedicated certified coaches that will help you as much or as little as you want. There is a coaches' feed back form, which we ask you to fill in on your first swim, so our coaches know exactly what you are looking for.


4. What are your members like?

We have a wide variety of swimmers. Former competitive swimmers, triathletes, and people just looking for a good workout in a fun environment. There is a place for everyone with OCM.


5. Does your club compete?

Yes, we do have some members that enjoy competition, and we encourage our members to compete. It is not however, mandatory.
