Head Coach Message

We’re less than a month away from the Pacific Masters Short Course Meters Championships—and we already have 10 swimmers on the roster! Let’s grow that crew!

The meet is close by in Walnut Creek, making it perfect for a quick day trip—or turn it into a fun weekend. Since it’s short course meters (SCM), it’s a fresh slate: no comparing your times to your old high school yards swims .

Come race, have fun, and soak up the meet energy.
Jump in—and bring a DAM friend!
