Casey Seals Masters Swimming Club
Swimming at Casey ARC for Masters, Open Water and Triathletes
 

Club Membership Information

We are a "masters" swimming club for adults (over 18 years of age) with varied abilities and training requirements ranging from social swimmers (some do more talking than swimming) through to national champions. This includes pool swimmers, open-water swimmers and triathletes.

Our insurance now requires everyone in our training sessions to be a club member, although you have 4 come-and-try sessions in the first month before you have to join.

If you wish to compete at Masters Swimming events (except for Masters Games), you must be a member of a club registered with Masters Swimming Victoria.

Masters Swimming

Masters Swimming Australia, previously known as AUSSI Masters Swimming (or the Australian Union of Senior Swimmers International), was established in 1976 and has the motto of swimming for "Fitness, Friendship and Fun". There are currently more than 1,000 members in Victoria and over 7,000 around Australia.

2007 LC warmup - CB

You certainly don't have to be a star swimmer to compete, especially in the smaller interclub meets which are fun and often informal events with a supper afterwards.

In most Master Swimming competitions, you will be placed into heats with other swimmers of a similar standard based on the entry time that you put in, regardless of your age and gender. This way you don't have to be embarrassed about not being one of the fastest swimmers.

You don't even have to know how to dive - you can start in the water if you'd prefer.

Remember that the emphasis in Masters Swimming is participation and having fun, rather than winning.


How to Join

You can join in either of the following 2 ways:

1. Online through the Masters Swimming website
