ABOUT MINNESOTA MASTERS SWIMMING
Local and National Masters Swimming
U.S. Masters Swimming (USMS) is a national membership nonprofit that provides membership benefits to nearly 60,000 Masters swimmers across the country. These benefits include insurance, SWIMMER magazine, sanctioned events, and more. USMS and its 52 Local Masters Swimming Committees (LMSCs) provide direct support to more than 1,200 Masters Swimming clubs and workout groups. The structure and organization of USMS programs vary and are driven by factors such as pool availability, instructor or coach availability, community support, and finances. The majority of locations offering Masters Swimming programs have coaches on deck. Coaches write workouts and provide feedback and instruction.
Minnesota Local Masters Swimming Committee (LMSC) promotes swimming throughout our region as part of a healthy lifestyle for adults of all swimming experience levels, from novice to expert. We have a wide range of programs for all adult swimmers (fitness, triathlete, competitive) that provide organized workouts, technique instruction and skills development, opportunities for pool or open water competition, as well as opportunities for community involvement and Adult-Learn-to-Swim programs. Our region consists of Minnesota & the western Wisconsin counties of St. Croix, Dunn & Pierce.
