Our History

What began in the fall of 1970 with only ten members and a four-lane pool in downtown Chatham, Ontario has grown to become a widely recognized competitive swimming club in southwestern Ontario. Over the years, our swim club has had the privilege of training many accomplished swimmers who have clinched several medal finishes at the provincial and national level.

Our Facility

The club trains at Chatham's state-of-the-art YMCA facility where there is a 6-lane, 25 meter pool to which we host two meets each year.

As we are a volunteer run, not-for-profit swim club we are grateful for the support and the use of the YMCA.
