OUR FACILITIES
The swim team works out of our 44-acre campus of The Atlantic Club Manasquan:
- Manasquan pools utilize saline salt-water filtration systems (which reduces chlorine in the water and improves air quality dramatically)
- The team trains in a 6-lane, 25-meter pool throughout the majority of the year
- Swimmers benefit from dry-land training, including indoor cycling
OUR STAFF
All of our coaches are members of the American Swimming Coaches Association. Our coaches have access to the most comprehensive training and certification programs for youth coaches of any sport in the United States.
