Madison Area YMCA 2009/2010 Mariners Masters Swim Team
The popular YMCA program is a United States Masters Swimming-affiliated swimming program.
Members of the Masters team are 18 years and older with all levels of experience. The focus of the team is to increase stamina in the water while improving technique with personalized on-deck coaching. Madison Y Masters are triathletes, graduated college and high school swimmers, or fitness swimmers.
Team members may be members of the Madison Area YMCA or non-members, but must join or already be a member of the United States Masters Swim (USMS). Joining online is easy at usms.org. A copy of the card must be provided at work outs if not a Madison Y member. The Madison Y is a part of Garden State Masters.
Swimmers are encouraged to join throughout the year, and determine a practice schedule to best suit their needs. Goggles and a swim cap are recommended.
